Sally bought a soft drink for 3 dollars and 9 candy bars. she spent a total of 48 dollars. how much did each candy bar cost?

Each candy bar is $5.11. If you divide 48 by 9  you get 5.33, so you just multiply 5.33 by 9, then add three. You don't get the answer then. That's why you need to reduce it 0.11 every time to multiply it by 9 and add three. When you reach the reduced number 4.99, add 0.01. Eventually you will reduce it down to 5.00, multiply that by 9 and you will get 45. If you add three dollars to that it's 48.

The answer is $48.

Hope I helped.  

the answer is $9 because she already spent $3 on a soft drink so you just subtract that from the total money she spent 48-3= 45 . After that you divide that by the number of candy bars bought 45/9=9 and 9 times 9 equals 45.

so $9 dollars is your final answer
