Question

dario buys 4 churros that each cost the same amount and a horchata drink that costs $6. the total cost is $18. how much does each churro cost?
a $3
b $4
c $6
d $12

Explanation:

Step1: Let the cost of each churro be $x$.

The total cost of 4 churros is $4x$, and the cost of the horchata drink is $6$. The total cost is $18$, so we can set up the equation $4x + 6 = 18$.

Step2: Solve the equation for $x$.

Subtract 6 from both sides: $4x = 18 - 6 = 12$. Then divide both sides by 4: $x = \frac{12}{4} = 3$.

Answer:

A. $3$
