Question

Ryan gave the cashier $50 to pay for 8 t-shirts. If the cashier gave him back $7.28 in change, and each t-shirt costs the same amount, how much does each t-shirt cost in dollars and cents?

Answer 1

$5.34

Explanation:

t shirts = 8

total money given = $50

Got back = $7.28

so ,

total cost of 8 t-shirts = $50 - $7.28

= $42.72

so each t-shirts costs = $42.72 ÷ 8

= $5.34
