Ami purchases 27 T-shirts for a certain amount of money. Using m for the total amount of money in dollars that Ami spent on T-shirts, write an expression that represents how much one T-shirt costs

Answer :

m = the total amount of money spent
y = how much each t-shirt costs
m / 27 = y
because:
y x 27 = m
so the equation is:
>m/27 = y
so total money=m
cost=total money
cost=number of tshirts times cost per tshirt
subsitute
m=27 times cost per shirt
to solve for cost per 1 shirt, divide both sides by 27
[tex] \frac{m}{27} [/tex]=cost per 1 shirt

answer is 1 t-shirt costs [tex] \frac{m}{27} [/tex]
