c÷ 8=5
c÷ 8=5

c−5=8
c minus 5 is equal to 8

c+8=5
c plus 8 is equal to 5

c×8=5

To solve the equation, you need to subtract 4.50 from both sides of the equation:

X + 4.50 - 4.50 = 6.75 - 4.50

Simplifying,

X = 2.25

Therefore, the cost of the drink is $2.25.

The correct algebraic equation to represent the problem is: c ÷ 8 = 5
Here, c represents the total number of cookies Amelia baked, 8 represents the number of friends she gave the cookies to, and 5 represents the number of cookies each friend received. By solving this equation, you can find out how many cookies Amelia baked in total.
