Question

The bookstore sells 6 books for $13.50 How much will it cost to purchase 2 books?

Answer 1

It would cost $4.50 to purchase 2 books.

Answer 2

If the cost for 6 books is $13.50 then to get the price of just one book you must divide 13.50 by 6.

The answer should be $2.25 per book purchased.

To find the price of two books you can multiply 2.25 by 2 OR you can add 2.25 and 2.25 together.

The answer should be $4.50 for two books.
