Given the cost of a box of eight crayons, the cost of each crayon is $0.12.
A box containing 30 crayons will cost $3.6.
How much would a box of 30 crayons cost?
Given that;
- Box of 8 crayons cost $0.96
- Cost of each crayon = ?
- Cost of 30 crayon box = ?
First, we determine the cost of each crayon.
8 crayons cost $0.96
1 crayon cost x
x = $0.96 / 8
x = $0.12
Hence, each crayon cost $0.12.
Next, we determine the cost of a box with 30 crayons.
1 crayon cost $0.12
30 crayon cost y
y = 30 × $0.12
y = $3.6
Hence, a box containing 30 crayons will cost $3.6.
