Answer 1

Answer:

1 sheet costs 1.6 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost of the toner is 40 dollars which is good for 10000 pages.

The cost of 500 sheets of paper is 6.00 dollars or 600 cents

500 sheets / 600 cents = 1 sheet /x         Cross Multiply

500 sheets  x = 600 cents                        Divide by 500

x = 600/500

x = 1.2 cents.

10000 sheets cost 40 dollars. = 4000 cents

1 sheet      costs x

10000/1 = 4000/x                          Cross multiply

10000*x = 1 * 4000                        Divide by 10000

x = 4000/10000

x = 0.4 cents.

Total Cost for 1 sheet = 0.4 cents + 1.2 cents

Total Cost for 1 sheet = 1.6 cents.
