Question

Morgan bought 6 candy bars for a total of $774. How much did he spend per candy bars

Answer 1

Morgan spent 129 per candy bar

Answer 2

Answer:

129$

Step-by-step explanation:

774 / 6 = 129$

It's easiest to divide. If you don't have access to a calculator, you can find the answer in your head by breaking down the problem.

You know that 6 * 100 will give you 600... so we know its more than 100. We'd have 174 remaining to account for.

174 / 6 is 29. Add that 100 to the 29 and we get 129.

Mental math is gained through experience, so keep going at it and you'll get there.

Those are some expensive candy bars...
