Use the table to answer the question. Cost of Pencils Quantity Cost ($) 48 12.00 24 6.00 12 3.00 6 1.50 Determine the cost for 1 pencil. (1 point) Responses $25.00 $25.00 $9.00 $9.00 $4.00 $4.00 $0.25

Answer 1

To determine the cost for 1 pencil, we can take the cost of the largest quantity of pencils provided in the table and divide it by the number of pencils:

For example, for 48 pencils at a total cost of $12.00:

Cost per pencil = Total Cost / Quantity Cost per pencil = $12.00 / 48 = $0.25

So the cost for 1 pencil is $0.25.
