A bookstore is selling 5 fictions for $20.75 and 3 nonfictions for $12.45. Determine the unit price for both reading materials
To find the unit price for fictions, we divide the total cost of fictions by the number of fictions:
Unit price for fictions = $20.75 / 5 = $4.15
To find the unit price for nonfictions, we divide the total cost of nonfictions by the number of nonfictions:
Unit price for nonfictions = $12.45 / 3 = $4.15
Therefore, the unit price for both fictions and nonfictions is $4.15.
