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 model the cost \( c \) of each bag of lemons, you can use the following equation:

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

This equation represents that the total cost of 5 bags of lemons ($19.75) is divided by the number of bags (5) to find the cost per bag.

Now, if you perform the division:

\[ c = 3.95 \]

So, each bag of lemons costs $3.95.

The complete equation is:

\[ c = \frac{19.75}{5} \text{ or } c = 3.95 \]
