Question

If a dozen bagels cost $8.40 what is the cost per Bagel

Answer 1

In this problem, we're trying to find the unit price which means price per unit or in this case, the cost per bagel.

Since we know that it costs $8.40 for 12 bagels, to find the cost for one bagel, we need to divide 12 into $8.40.
