Answer:

$3.48 for each pair of socks.

Explanation:

It's a little confusing, because it says they're buying 2 socks, but then asks for the price of each of 2 *pairs* of socks. I'm going to believe the first sentence should say they paid for 2 pairs of socks.

They have $10, and get $3.04 in change. So we'll subtract $3.04 from $10 to find out the cost of 2 pairs of socks.

10 - 3.04 = 6.96

Then divide $6.96 by 2 pairs of socks

6.96/2 = $3.48 for each pair of socks.
