A customer purchased 3 pairs of jeans for $94.50. If each pair of jeans costs the same amount, write an equation and then solve for the amount a single pair of jeans costs

Answer :

Answer:

One pair of jeans will cost $31.50

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how much one pair of jeans will cost let's write an equation

where the cost of one pair of jeans is x

∴ 3×x=94.50

to find x we will divide both sides by 3

∴3÷3×x=94.50÷3

which makes the equation

∴x=31.50

meaning that one pair of jeans costs $31.50

if each pairs of jeans is the same amount

94.50=3*x

solve for x

94.59/3=x

31.50=x
each pair of jeans will cost $31.50
