equation to find the cost of each shirt, c

Answer 1

Answer:

8c= $225

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of shirts ×cost of each shirt= total cost

Since she bought 8 shirts and the cost of each is c,

8c= $225

To solve for c, divide both sides of the equation by 8:

c= $225 ÷8

c= $28.125

Answer 2

Answer:

8c= $225

Step-by-step explanation:

8c÷8= $225÷8

c=28.125
