answer:

To find the cost of each bag of lemons, we can subtract the cost of the cookies from the total amount paid by Angel.

Given information:

Total amount paid = $29.80

Cost of cookies = $6.25

To find the cost of each bag of lemons, we can subtract the cost of the cookies from the total amount paid:

$29.80 - $6.25 = $23.55

Now, since Angel bought 5 bags of lemons and the cost of each bag is the same, we can divide the total cost of the bags by the number of bags:

$23.55 / 5 = $4.71

Therefore, each bag of lemons costs $4.71.

so real
