Ronnie bought 6 ice cream cones for himself and his friends. seventeen cents tax was added to the price of each cone. the total cost was $14.58.

what was the price of a cone before tax?

enter your answer in the box.

$2.26

Step-by-step explanation:

6 ice cream cones means the price is 6 time as much as on cone so divide by 6.

$14.58                       total

   /6                           number of cones

$2.43                        cost of a single cone

now, we remove the $0.17 tax

$2.43

-$ .17

$2.26

226 cent

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the price of a single cone

   6×(x+17) = 1458

⇔ x+17 = 1458/6 =1 458÷6 = 243

⇔ x = 243 - 17 = 226
