Let unit cost of one rake be : r
Given : Total number of volunteers = 12
Given : Each pair of gloves cost $8.00
⇒ Cost of 12 pair of gloves for 12 volunteers = (12 × 8) = $96
Given : The gardener spends a total of $300 on both rakes and gloves
⇒ Cost of 12 rakes + Cost of 12 pair of gloves = $300
⇒ 12r + 96 = 300
⇒ 12r = 204
⇒ r = 17
<u>Answer</u> : Cost of one rake is $17
