you bought a magazine for $5 and four erasers. you spent a total of $25.
Magazine cost: 5$ each
Eraser cost: X$ each
Total cost is the number of items (1 magazine) times the cost of each item (5$). We don't know the cost of each eraser, so we represent that using a variable, X.
1(5) + 4(X) = 25
5 + 4X = 25
subtract 5 from both sides
4X = 25 - 5
4X = 20
divide both sides by 4
X = 20/4
X = 5
Each eraser cost 5$
1, 5 is the answer to the equation, 1+5=6 1x5=5
400x6=2400 This is how a find a product
