Question

Marissa bought 60 party hats for $84.00. find the unit price for 1 hat

Answer 1

$1.40

Explanation:

so the price of one hat is your unknown variable, so let's make an equation out of it:

60*x=$84.00

let's let x stand for the price of one hat

the way i figured it out was to do 84 ÷ 60

which equals 1.4

and remember, since we're dealing with money you must add a zero at the end of the decimal

then if you want, just to ensure that this is correct you can multiply 60*1.40

good luck :)

i hope this helps

have a great day !!
