Question

8 books cost $19.60. which equation would help determine the cost of 10 books.

Answer 1

Answer:

$24.5

Step-by-step explanation:

first thing you want to do is take 19.60 and divide it by 8 (eight is the amount of books you bought) one you've done that you get 2.45 then multiply that by 10 since that's how many books you are buying and you get 24.5

19.60/8=2.45

2.45x10=24.5

Answer 2

As per the data given in the question,

In the above question, it is given that,

The 8 books cost $19.60.

 We have to determine the cost of 10 books.

Here first of all we have to determine the cost of one book,

Thus,$=\frac{19.60}{8} \\= 2.45$

The cost of one book is $2.45

Therefore the cost of 10 books,

$=10\times 2.45\\=24.5$

Hence the cost of 10 books is $24.5
