In this question it is important to note down all the important information's that are mentioned in the question.
Cost of a container of cat liter = $13.75
Cost of a bag of cat food = X dollars
Total amount of money required to purchase the items = $20.80
Percentage of sales tax that had to be given = 4%
Then
Amount of sales tax given = (4/100) * 20.8 dollars
                                           = 20.8/25 dollars
                                           = 0.83 dollars
Then the total purchase price for the two items = 20.80 - 0.83 dollars
                                                                            = 19.97 dollars
Now we can easily find the cost of the cat food by subtracting the cost of the liter from the total purchase amount.
Then
Cost of the cat food = 19.97 - 13.75 dollars
                                 = 6.22 dollars
So the cost of the bag of cat food is $6.22

A preschool teacher has 17.5 feet of yarn for her students to make necklaces to raise money for a local animal shelter each neck
Scorpion4ik [409]
17.5x12=210
210 divided by 14=15
15x2.50=37.5
37.5
17.5 is feet so you need to divide by 12 for inches which gets 210 and you need each necklace to be 14 inches so you need to divide 210 by 14 which is 15 each necklace costs 2.50 so you multiply 2.50x15
You get 37.5
