Question

Josiah buys cheese and onions at the store. He pays a total of $35.41. He pays a total of $6.26 for the cheese. He buys 5 bags of onions that each cost the same amount. How much does each bag of onions cost?

Answer 1

5.83

Explanation:

5x + 6.26 = 35.41

-6.26 -6.26

5x = 29.15

`(5x)/(5) =(29.15)/(5)`

x = 5.83

Each bag of onions costs $5.83.
