jose bought 750 bags of peanuts for $375.00. he intends to sell each bag for $0.15 more than he paid. how much should he charge for each bag? $0.35 $0.50 $0.55 $0.65

Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate cost per - bag

Find the cost of each bag when Jose bought them. Divide the total cost by the number of bags. The total cost is $375$ and the number of bags is $750$. So the cost per - bag is $\frac{375}{750}=0.5$ dollars.

Step2: Calculate selling price per - bag

He intends to sell each bag for $0.15$ more than he paid. So we add $0.15$ to the cost per - bag. $0.5 + 0.15=0.65$ dollars.

Answer:

$0.65$ dollars (D. $0.65$)
