Your mom is taking you shopping at the mall. She has $78 to spend on you. You already know that $18 of that money is for your sc
hool backpack. You need to get 2 shirts and 2 pairs of pants for your school uniform. The pants and the shirts cost the same amount for each. How much does each shirt or pair of pants cost?
The answer is that each shirt and pair of pants costs 15$
Step-by-step explanation:
So you have 78$, and you already need to buy a backpack so then you have 60$ dollars because the backpack is 18$, and 2 shirts and 2 pairs of pants is 4 pieces of clothing in all, 60$ divided by 4 pieces of clothing equals 15$ per piece of clothing (78 - 18 = 60 divided by 4 = 15)
