To determine the cost for 1 pencil, we can look at the cost for a specific quantity and calculate the unit price.
Let's take the cost of 6 pencils as an example:
- Cost for 6 pencils = $1.50
To find the cost for 1 pencil, divide the total cost by the number of pencils: \[ \text{Cost per pencil} = \frac{1.50}{6} = 0.25 \]
So, the cost for 1 pencil is $0.25.
Therefore, the correct response is:
$0.25
