0.25

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: $0.25

Explanation:

We are given that the cost of 12 goldfish = $3

To find the cost of one goldfish we use division operator and divide the cost of 12 gold fishes by 12.

Then , the cost of one gold fish =
`\$3/ 12`

⇒ Cost of 1 gold fish
`=(\$3)/(12)`

⇒ Cost of 1 gold fish
`=(\$1)/(4)` [Divide numerator and denominator by 3.]

⇒ Cost of 1 gold fish
`=\$0.25` [Simplify by dividing 1 by 4]

Therefore , the cost of 1 goldfish = $0.25
