Question

Kayla paid $27.50 for a pair of gloves. The cost of the gloves is $8.75 more than the cost of a scarf. Which equation can be used to find the cost of the scarf?

Answer 1

Answer:

You can use subtraction

Step-by-step explanation:

$27.50 - $8.75 = $18.75 (cost of scarf)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

the gloves cost 27.50 dollars and if the scarf cost 8.75 dollrs more then that means that if we subtract that extra mount we should get the price of the scarf

if $18.75 is the cost of scarf and if gloves are $8.75 more then...

$18.75 (scarf) + $8.75 (extra $) = $27.50 (gloves)
