Question

Answer 1

Answer:

Each apple costs $0.52.

Step-by-step explanation:

Christ spent a total of $2.60 for 5 apples. We want to find the cost of one apple.

To find this: total cost/total apples

2.60/5 = 0.52

Each apple costs $0.52.

Let's check our answer.

If one apples costs $0.52, 5 apples should cost 0.52 • 5

0.52 • 5 = 2.60

This is how much Christ spent; therefore your answer is correct.
