John bought a crate of floor tiles $100. The crate had 5 boxes of floor tiles. Each box contained 40 floor tiles. What is the cost per tile ?

Each tile would be 50 cents explanation: 40 multiplied by 5 is 200, 100 dollars divided by 200 tiles equals out to be 50 cents a piece :)

$0.50.
There are a total of 200 tiles (5 x 40)
since John paid $100 for the 200 tiles,
We have to do $100 divided by 200.
Which is .5
So $.50
