Answer 2

Hello!

To calculate how much 3 cakes would cost, we must first find the cost of each individual cake.

To do this, we must divide the cost of 8 cakes by 8 cakes.

4.00 ÷ 8 = 0.5

This means that each individual cake costs $0.50. Multiply this by 3 to find the cost of 3 cakes.

0.50 × 3 = 1.50

Therefore, 3 cakes would cost $1.50.
