Answer:

1.7$

Explanation:

To solve this, first subtract the coffee from the total cost, and then divide the cost by the amount of granola bars.

So first, subtract 7$ from 24(the coffee from the total cost):

24-7

=

17

Next divide the 17$ by the 10 granola bars:

17/10

=

1.7

So we know that the answer is each granola bar cost 1.7$

Hope this helps!
