A customer went to a garden shop and bought some potting soil for $12.50 and 5 shrubs. The total bill was $62.50. Write and solve an equation to find the price of each shrub.

A. 5p + $12.50 = $62.50; p = $10.00

B. 5p + $12.50 = $62.50; p = $12.00

C. 5(p + $12.50) = $62.50; p = $7.75

D. 5p + 12.5p = $62.50; p = $3.57

Respuesta :

62.50 - 10 - 10 - 10 - 10 - 10 (five times)= 12.50

The equation to find the price of each shrub is 5p + $12.50 = $62.50, the price of each shrub is $10, the correct option is A.
