Tim buys a torch and battery the torch costs 11 times as much as the battery Tim pays with a ?10 note and he gets ?4.84 change h

KengaRu [80]

The cost of 1 battery is 0.43

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of 1 battery be x

We are given that the torch costs 11 times as much as the battery

Cost of torch = 11x

Total cost of 1 battery and torch = 11x+x=12x

Tim pays $10

He receives change of $4.84

Total cost of 1 torch and battery = 10 - 4.84 =$5.16

So, $12x= 5.16$

$x= \frac{5.16}{12}$

$x=0.43$

Hence the cost of 1 battery is 0.43
