Question

The freshman class is selling candy bars to raise money. They purchased 3100 candy bars and paid a delivery fee of $35. The total cost, including the delivery fee, was $1430. What was the cost of each candy bar?

Answer 1

Each candy bar would be 45 cents

Answer 2

$0.45

Explanation:

To answer this question, we first have to subtract the delivery fee from the total cost:

1430 - 35 = 1395

Now, we divide this number by the total amount of candy bars:

1395 / 3100 = 0.45

So, each candy bar costs $0.45

Hope this helps :)
