Tony spent $60.54 and bought 3 packs of notebooks and a calculator. How much does a pack of notrbooks cost if a calculator costs $45.87

Well, if the notebooks cost x, then you know that

3x + 45.87 = 60.54
right? so, solve for x.

The Industrial Revolution was the transition to new manufacturing processes in Britain, continental Europe and the United States, in the period from about 1760 to sometime between 1820 and 1840.

$60.84-$45.87

$14.67
14.67/3

x is the cost of the notebooks

60.54 - 45.87 = ___

Divide the difference by 3.

Let c be the cost of a pack of notebooks.

c3 + 45.87 = 60.54
Then, solve for c, the cost of a pack of notebooks.

So you would subtract 60.54 by 45.87 and you would get the number of notebooks! so if my calculations are correct the answer is 14.67

But then you would divide what you got.... and so the answer is 4.89!

To find out how much a pack of notebooks costs, we need to subtract the cost of the calculator from the total amount Tony spent on notebooks and the calculator.

Step 1: Calculate the cost of the calculator.
Tony spent $60.54 in total, so the cost of the calculator is $45.87.

Step 2: Subtract the cost of the calculator from the total amount spent.
$60.54 - $45.87 = $14.67

Step 3: Divide the remaining amount by the number of packs of notebooks.
Since Tony bought 3 packs of notebooks, we divide $14.67 by 3.

$14.67 / 3 = $4.89

Therefore, a pack of notebooks costs $4.89.
