The people of Whoville were shopping like crazy to get their lists completed! one customer bought a wreath for $12 and seven ornaments. The customer spent a total of $54. How much did each ornament cost?

Answer: 6 dollars

Step-by-step explanation: since the total price is 54 dollars and we know the price of the wreath, we subtract the wreath from the total, leaving us with 42. Then we do 42 divided by 7 to get the price per ornament(which is too high to be reasonable in any universe), 6 dollars.
