Jessica ordered 4 books that each cost the same price. Her purchase cost was $96.10 and included a $3.50 shipping charge. How much did each book cost?

First you have to minus the shipping fee from the total cost which leaves 92.6. Then divide that by 4 which is how many books she bought. 92.6 divided by 4 is 23.15. So she spent $23.15 for each book
