Question

Samuel gave the cashier $30 to pay for 4 bags of candy he was purchasing for a class party. The cashier gave him $2.04 in change. Each bag of candy costs the same amount.

What is the cost in dollars for each bag of candy?

Answer 1

Explanation:

First, subtract 2.04 by 30

30 - 2.04 = 27.96

Next, divide 27.96 by 4.

27.96/4 = 6.99

Each bag of candy cost $6.99
