Chase bought 19 chicken wings for $26.60. What was the cost of the wings, in dollars per wing?

Answer 1

To find the cost of the wings per wing, we can divide the total cost by the number of wings.

The total cost of the wings is $26.60 and the number of wings is 19.

We calculate the cost per wing as follows:

\[ \text{Cost per wing} = \frac{\text{Total cost}}{\text{Number of wings}} = \frac{26.60}{19} \]

Now, performing the division:

\[ \frac{26.60}{19} = 1.4 \]

Thus, the cost of the wings is $1.40 per wing.
