Question

Josh paid for four books with three $20 bills he received $12 in change each book was the same price how much did each book cost

Answer 1

Three $20 bills is a total of $60

$60 - $12 = $48

He spent a total of $48 on the books

Divide the total spent by the number of books:

48 / 3 = 16

Each book cost $16

Answer 2

Answer:$12 per book

Step-by-step explanation: $20 x 3= $60

If you have $12 change you minus that from the $60

Now that is $48 for 4 books.

To work out one book you do $48/4 which is $12 per book.
