Maya bought 6 CDs that were each the same price. Including sales tax, she paid a total of $97.20. Of that total, $5.40 was tax. What was the price of each CD before tax?

Answer: 17.20

Explanation:

So 6 x 16 = 96 Then I added 1 dollar and 20 cents to get it to $97.20. so the answer would most likely be 17.20 for each CD.. Sorry for any mistakes! Hope it helped and have a wonderful day! :))
