Did you know?
Did you know that you can use equations to find the price of items? Let's take a bag of super dog food, priced at $12.50, as an example. Interestingly, it's only one-third the price of a bag of power dog dog food. By setting up an equation, we can find the cost of the power dog dog food. Let's represent the price of a bag of power dog dog food as "x." The equation to solve for "x" would be:
$12.50 = (1/3)x
To find the value of "x", we can multiply both sides of the equation by 3, canceling out the fraction. This leads us to:
3 * $12.50 = x
Simplifying the left side of the equation, we have:
$37.50 = x
Hence, the price of a bag of power dog dog food is $37.50. Equations can be a handy tool for finding unknown values and help us understand the relationship between prices!
