Eric spent $21.94, including sales tax, on 2 jerseys and 3 pairs of socks. The jerseys cost $6.75 each and the total sales tax was $1.03. What was the cost of each pair of socks?

Answer 1

Each pair of socks cost $2.47.

Explanation:

Jerseys=$6.75

$6.75x2=$13.50

Tax=$1.03

$13.50+$1.03=$14.53

$21.94-$14.53=$7.41

$7.41 divided by 3= $2.47

$2.47= Cost of each pair of socks
