Peter notices a price tag of a candy box and it says that the price is $57.5. He also notices that the box contains 250 units of multi-flavored candies, Find the cost of each candy.

Let p be the cost of 1 candy.

Then,

57.5 = p(250)

[tex]p=\frac{57.5}{250}[/tex]

= 0.23

Hence, cost of one candy is $0.23.
