Katie bought 4 sweaters that each cost the same amount and 1 skirt that cost $20. The items she bought cost a total of $160 before tax was added. What was the cost of each sweat?

Answer :

Answer:

$35

Step-by-step explanation:

first we need to find the amount of money the sweaters cost alone.

so we first subtract the total (160) - the skirt price (20) which is 140

now we divide it by 4 to find the price of each seater, as they all cost the same.

so 140 divided by 4 = 35

answer: $35
