Answer 1

Answer:

• For 15 pens, the cost is $7.2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

• 8 pens = $3.84

Work:

• 8 pens = $3.84

Divide the RHS:

• => 1 pen = 3.84/8
• => 1 pen = 0.48

Multiply the RHS:

• => 15 pens = 0.48 x 1
• => 15 pens = $7.2

Hence, for 15 pens, the cost is $7.2

Hoped this helped.
