Answer 1

Answer:

Each item cost nine dollars (9$)

Step-by-step explanation:

Joseph earns $6 a day walking dogs. He spends all the money he earned in 6 days on 4 items. Each item costs the same amount. How much does each item cost?

Since Joseph earns 6$ each day, and he used up the money he had earned in six days on four items, in this case we need to find out how much each item costs.

(1) First of all, we need 6 ( how many money he earns each day ) to multiply with 6 ( how many days he had earnt money walking dogs ) (6 x 6)

6x6= 36

(2) Secondly, when we get the product 36, we need to divide it by 4, ( the items he spent his money on ). The result is 9$.
