Paisley bought snacks for her team's practice. She bought a bag of chips for $1.64 and a 8-pack of juice bottles. The total cost before tax was $18.44. How much was each bottle of juice?

Answer 1

To find the cost of each bottle of juice, first, we need to determine the total cost of the 8-pack of juice bottles.

1. Start with the total cost of snacks: $18.44
2. Subtract the cost of the bag of chips: $1.64

\[ \text{Cost of the 8-pack of juice bottles} = 18.44 - 1.64 = 16.80 \]

Now that we have the total cost of the juice bottles, we can find the cost of each bottle.

3. Divide the total cost of the 8-pack by the number of bottles:

\[ \text{Cost per bottle} = \frac{16.80}{8} = 2.10 \]

Therefore, each bottle of juice costs $2.10.
