Question

The school is buying new playground equipment for $7,790. How much did each piece of equipment cost if the school bought 8 pieces of equipment with the cost of each being the same price?

Answer 1

, you can simply divide the total cost by the number of pieces purchased. In this case:

Total cost = $7,790
Number of pieces = 8

So, each piece of equipment costs:

$7,790 / 8 = $973.75

Each piece of playground equipment costs $973.75.
