Three sisters each purchase a dress of equal value. One of the sisters purchased a purse for $26.00. If the grand total was $249.50, how much did each dress cost?

Answer:

you would take 249.50 and subtract 26.00 from it. then you would divide it by 3 for the initial cost of each dress

Explanation:

249.50-26.00=223.05 then divide

223.05÷3= 74.05

hope that helped !
