Question

You can buy 7 pillows at Kohl’s for a total of $59.92. How much does each pillow cost?

Answer 1

The cost for each pillow can be expressed as,

$c=\frac{t}{n}$

Here, c is the cost of one pillow, t is the total cost and n is the number of pillows.

Plug in the known values,

$\begin{gathered} c=\frac{59.92}{7} \\ =8.56 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the cost of each pillow is $8.56.
