Answer:

The cost of each salad is $12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each time she goes she pays a $1.50 tip. And since she went four times it would be 1.5*4 which equals 6. Then you would take $6 off of $54. Which would be $48. Because she went four times then she would take $48 and divide it by 4. Which gives you $12. She spent $12 per salad.

Answer: Each salad cost $12

Step-by-step explanation:

She visited the restaurant 4 times and each time she ordered a salad and left 1.50 tip so multiply 1.50 by 4 to find the total amount of tip she paid during the four visits.

1.50 * 4 = 6 so in total she paid a total of $6 in tips

Now subtract the total amount of tip from the total amount of money she spent and divide it by for to find how much each salad cost.

54 - 6 = 48

48/ 4 = 12
