paul buy 4 packs of pencil for only 6 dollar how much does one cost

Question

4pack of pencil for only $6

Answer 1

Here's how you do this type of problem:

 

"p" is a pack of pencils.

 

4p = 6 (4 packs cost $6)

 

You want to get p by itself, so divide both sides by 4.

 

p = (6/4) = 1.5

 

p = $1.50
