$40-$10=$30, so Betty spent $30 on the 12 packets of popcorn. This means that we need to share the $30 by 12 to find out how much each packet had cost. $30÷12=$2.50. Therefore, your answer is $2.50.

Set up the equation:

40 - 12x = 10

40 represents the money Betty had initially. 12 is the coefficient for x, and represents how many bags of popcorn Betty bought. x represents the cost of a single bag of popcorn. 10 is the money Betty is left with.

Subtract 40 from both sides:

-12x = -30

Divide both sides by -12 to get x by itself:
x = 2.5

The cost of a single bag of popcorn is $2.50.
