Answer:

one bracelet costs $6

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets say that the cost of 1 bracelet is x and the total cost of the 8 bracelets is y. we know that

y + 6 = 54

and we also know that

y/8 = x

since 54 - 6 = y

and 54 - 6 = 48

we know that y = 48

Using the fact that y/8 = x and y = 48

48/8 = x

and 48/8 = 6
