Julio is making lemonade to be sold at a fair. He bought 5 bags of lemons for $19.75

Question

. Complete the equation that models the cost, c
, of each bag of lemons

Answer 1

To find the cost, \( c \), of each bag of lemons, you can set up the equation as follows:

\[ 5c = 19.75 \]

To solve for \( c \), you would divide both sides by 5:

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

Calculating that gives:

\[ c = 3.95 \]

So, each bag of lemons costs $3.95. The complete equation that models the cost of each bag of lemons is:

\[ 5c = 19.75 \]
