OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

@pielover123 thanks for actually trying!

OpenStudy (thesmartestderpalive):

Yes its 8

OpenStudy (thesmartestderpalive):

you have too do this

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

Do 15.75/3 to get the unit rate then mutliply that by 8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and i got 42 when i did that

OpenStudy (thesmartestderpalive):

15.75 / 3 = 5.25 then 5.25 x 8

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

yes

OpenStudy (thesmartestderpalive):

it equals 42 SO YOU ARE CORRECT

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

Good job for trying @pielover123 !!!!

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

Btw the unit rate was 5.25

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i was wrong

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

No you were correct with 42. But if you didn't have the correct work you were wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok i need help with one more then i will be done ok @TheSmartestDerpAlive and @horsegirl27

OpenStudy (thesmartestderpalive):

ok

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

you find the unit rate by dividing 3 from 15.75, 15.75/3=5.25. 5.25 is the cost of 1 shirt and if she got 8 shirts you do 5.25*8 which is 42!

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

Sure @pielover123

OpenStudy (thesmartestderpalive):
