Answer 1

Answer:

$1.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Price paid to buy 5 bags of chips = $6

To find:

Price per bag of chips in two digits after the decimal.

Solution:

To find the price of each bag of chips, we need to divide the price of 5 bags of chips with 5.

i.e. we need to divide $6 with 5, then we will get the price of each bag of chips.

$\text{Price of each bag of chips}=\dfrac{\text{Price of 5 bags of chips}}{5}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{\ 6}{5} = \bold{\ 1.2}$

Therefore, the answer is:

Price of each bag of chips is $1.2.
