Question

Cam's Cupboard grocery store is having a sale on canned goods. Tiana decides to stock up

and purchases 12 cans of soup. During the sale, cans of soup sell for $0.55 les than full
price. Tiana pays a total of $13.20 for the cans of soup.
Which equation can you use to find the amount, f, each can of soup costs at full price?
0.55(f - 12) = 13.20
12(f - 0.55) = 13.20
0.55f - 12 = 13.20
12f - 0.55 = 13.20
How much does each can of soup cost at full price?
$

Answer 1

1.65

Explanation:

equation will be 12(f−0.55)=13.20

12f−6.6=13.20

12f = 19.8

f = 19.8/12 = 1.65

So, each can of soup at full price is $1.65.
