Question

A pet shop sells goldfish for $ 9 per dozen. How much would 6 goldfish cost? How many goldfish could you buy with $50?

Answer 1

Answer:

6 goldfish = $4.50. You can buy 66 goldfish with $50

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that dozen is 12, so 12 goldfish would be $9. To find how much one goldfish costs we would divide 9 and 12. 9÷12 is 0.75. So one goldfish is $0.75.

To find 6 goldfish just multiply 0.75 to 6. 6 goldfish would be $4.50.

We know that 0.75 times 100 would be 75 so you can only buy less than 100 goldfishes. You can buy 66 goldfishes with $50.

If this helped, I would appreciate it if you marked me brainliest. Have a nice day!
