Answer 1

Answer:

1 dozen = 12

cost of 12 balls = $36

cost of 1 ball = 36/12 = $3

Cost of 37 balls = 3*37 = $111

Therefore, the teacher paid $111 in total

Answer 2

Answer:

1 dozen = 12

The cost of 1 dozen ( 12 ) badminton balls = $36

So , the cost of 1 ball = 36 ÷ 12

= $3

Now , the cost of 37 such balls would be = 37 × 3

= $ 111

Hence , the teacher paid $101 in total .
