Question

Heather buys 12 patio chairs for $366. Each chair costs the same amount. Part A Which equation represents the best estimate for the cost of each chair?

Answer 1

Answer:

$C=\dfrac{366}{12}$ = $30.5

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

The cost of 12 patio chairs is $366.

We need to find the equation that represents the cost of each chair.

As each chair costs the same amount. It means we can find the cost of each chair by dividing total cost of 12 chairs divided by 12 i.e.

$C=\dfrac{366}{12}$

So, it is the required equation. If we solve it, we get $30.5. Hence, the cost of each chair is $30.5
