How much does it cost her to make 1 cookie? Round to the tenth place if necessary.

Answer 1

13.44 to make 1 batch. 0.56 to make 1 cookie.

Explanation:

If it cost 134.40 to make 10 batches, then you would divide that by 10 for how much it cost for 1 batch.

Then, 1 batch of 24 costs 13.44, you would divide it by 24 for the cost of 1 cookie.

Answer 2

13 dollars and 44 cents, 56 cents.

Explanation:

134 dollars are 40 cents = 134.4 dollars.

10b = 134.4

b = 13.44

13 dollars and 44 cents

There are 24 cookies to a batch

24c = 13.44

c = 0.56.

so each cookie costs 56 cents
