Let's assume the price of a piece of hard candy is x dollars.
According to the given information, a candy bar costs $0.95, which is nineteen times the price of hard candy.
So, we can write the equation:
0.95 = 19x
Now, let's solve for x:
Divide both sides of the equation by 19:
0.95/19 = x
0.05 = x
Therefore, the price of a piece of hard candy is $0.05.
