Question

There are 12 ice cream cups in a box if the box cost 9.60 how much does each cup of ice cream cost

Answer 1

You would take the number of ice cream cups which is 12 and divide it by the cost which is 9.60
12/9.60=1.25

Answer 2

divide total cost by the quantity:

9.60/12 = 0.8

so each cup cost 0.80 = 80 cents each
