a bakery offers a sale price of $3.50 for 4 muffins. What is the price per dozen?
$3.50 for 4 muffines
Divide 3.50 by 4 which is .870
.875 is per muffin, to multiply by a dozen, multiply by 12
.875×12=10.00
The price for 12 muffins is $10.00
The correct answer is: $10.5
Explanation:
4 muffins are of $3.50
1 muffin is of \(\frac{\textdollar3.50}{4} =\frac{7}{8} = \textdollar0.875\)
1 dozen (12 muffins) is of \(\textdollar0.875\) * 12 = $10.5 (answer)
