The school purchased baseball equipment and uniforms for a total cost of $1,836. The equipment cost $612, and the uniforms were $25.50 each. How many uniforms did the school purchase?
You have to put a equation: \(1836 = 612 + 25,50x\)⇔\(1836-612=25,50x\)⇔\(1224 = 25,50x\)⇔\(x= \frac{1224}{25,50}\)⇔\(x=48\) The school purchased 48 uniforms.
