  3. First I subtracted $7 from $50 and got $43. Then I divided $4 from $43.00 and got $10.75. The total cost was $43, and the price of each was $10.75.

  4. I subtracted 7 dollars from 50 dollars and that came up to be 43 dollars. after that I divided 4 dollars from 43 dollars and got $10.75. The total cost was $43, then I figured out the price of the shirt was 10 dollars and 75 cents.

  5. 1. If I subtract 7 dollars from 50 dollars I would get 43 dollars. 2. After that I would divide that (43/4=N) and get $10.75. The cost of each shirt was $10.75.

  6. First I subtracted $7 from $50 and got $43. That's the four put together. Then I divided 4 from $43 and got $10.75. That is what each cost.

  8. 50-7=L
    L=43
    43 divided by 4= 10.75
    i got the answer of $10.75 by taking 50-7=43 and than divided
