Nic has $9 to spend on cards. she finds friends with the same amount of money to split the cost of a set. one set costs $27. each friend gets the same number of cards. how many cards does each friend get?

Each friend gets cards

Solution:

Let the number of cards in $ 27 set be "x"

Given that Nicole has $9 to spend on cards

Amount with Nicole to spend on cards = $ 9

One set costs $27

Therefore, cost of 1 set = $ 27

Each friend gets the same number of cards

She finds friends with the same amount of money to split the cost of a set

Therefore, to get total cost of 1 set which is $ 27 , we can say

$ 9 + $ 9 + $ 9 = $ 27

So 2 friends pay each $ 9 and nicole pays $ 9

Now, Number of cards each friend gets is given by

Thus each friend gets cards

the answer is 31.27mph
