12 apple pies and 13 blackberry pies for a total of $452. How much does one apple pie cost?

Answer 1

$16 each Molly sold 6 apple pies so 16•6=96 so 116-96=20 totsakan sold 452 so 12•16=192 so 452-192=260 and then divide that by 20 for the amount of blackberrie pies 260 divided by 20 is 13 and he sold 13 blackberrie pies therefore each apple pie is 16$ sorry if this isn’t helpful it’s my first time awnser a question:)
