Question

the price of 6 pretzels is 5.10$. Simon and Sofia bought 8 pretzels and shared the cost equally. how much did each person pay

Answer 1

They each pay $3.40.

Explanation:

I took 6 and divided $5.10 into 6 to get the cost per pretzel. Then, I multiplied the cost of one pretzel by 8, and divided by two to evenly split the cost between Simon and Sofia. Hope this helps!!

Answer 2

Simon and Sophia payed $3.40 each.

Explanation:

5.10/6= 0.85

0.85 dollars per pretzel.

0.85*8= 6.8

Simon and Sophia payed $6.80 together.

6.80/2= 3.4

Simon and Sophia payed $3.40 each.
