Question

The total cost of a suit and 4 ties is $292. The suit cost $200. Each tie cost the same amount. Find the cost is one tie.
Ms. Sue
I'll be glad to check your answer.
To get you started:
200 + 4t = 292
X=50
I would be happy to inform you that t=23
It is 23
200 + 4t = 292
200 - 200 + 4t = 292 - 200
4t/4 = 92/4
t = 23
The answer is 23 because when you take 92 out of 292 you divide it by four (how much ties) you get 23
