Question 1
Ms. Benson bought a bag of candy for $5.00. There were 20 pieces of candy in the bag. What is the unit cost of each piece of candy in the bag?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$0.25 each

Step-by-step explanation:

We take the $5.00 total that Ms. Benson spent, and we divide that by 20, because there were 20 pieces of candy in the bag. This gives us:

$5 / 20 = $0.25

So each piece of candy cost 1 quarter, or 25 cents.
