Question

Answer 1

I think its answer D

Answer 2

Answer:

D. $3c=12.69;c=4.23;\ 4.23$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Luke paid 12.69 for 3 greeting cards.

We are also told that each card cost the same amount, c, so the cost of 3 cards will be 3c.

Since the cost of 3 cards is 12.69, so we can represent this information in an equation as:

$3c=12.69$

Upon dividing both sides of our equation by 3 we will get,

$\frac{3c}{3}=\frac{12.69}{3}$

$c=4.23$

Upon looking at our given choices we can see that option D is the correct choice.
