c =

1 answer

To find the cost per bag of lemons, you can divide the total cost by the number of bags.

The total cost is $19.75 for 5 bags, so the equation is:

\[ c = \frac{19.75}{5} \]

Now, calculating that gives:

\[ c = 3.95 \]

So the complete equation is:

\[ c = \frac{19.75}{5} \quad \text{or} \quad c = 3.95 \]
