Enola bought 14 chicken wings for $29.40. How much would it cost for 5 wings?

Answer 1

To determine the cost of 5 chicken wings, first, you need to figure out the cost of a single wing based on the 14 wings Enola bought for $29.40.

First, calculate the cost per wing by dividing the total cost by the number of wings:

Cost per wing = $29.40 / 14 wings

Now, divide $29.40 by 14 to find the cost per wing:

Cost per wing = $2.10

Now that you have the cost per wing, you can calculate the cost for 5 wings by multiplying the cost per wing by 5:

Cost for 5 wings = $2.10 per wing × 5 wings

Cost for 5 wings = $10.50

It would cost $10.50 for 5 wings.
