What is the cost for one shirt?

(1 point)

Answer 1

To find the cost for one shirt, you can divide the total cost by the quantity for each option:

1. For 6 shirts at $18:
\[
\text{Cost per shirt} = \frac{18}{6} = 3 \text{ dollars}
\]

2. For 5 shirts at $15:
\[
\text{Cost per shirt} = \frac{15}{5} = 3 \text{ dollars}
\]

3. For 4 shirts at $12:
\[
\text{Cost per shirt} = \frac{12}{4} = 3 \text{ dollars}
\]

4. For 3 shirts at $9:
\[
\text{Cost per shirt} = \frac{9}{3} = 3 \text{ dollars}
\]

In all cases, the cost for one shirt is **$3**.
