Rita bought 4 CDs that were each the same price. Including sales tax, she paid a total of $ 61.60. Of that total,$ 2.80 was tax. What was the price of each CD before tax

The price of each CD is:

$14.70

Step-by-step explanation:

(61.6 - 2.8) /4

=  58.8/4

= $14.7

$14.70

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the price of each CD before tax. Therefore, we must first subtract the tax from the total.

total -tax

The total cost was $61.60 and the tax was $2.80

$61.60 - $2.80

$58.80

The price for the 4 CDs (without tax) was $58.50.

We know that each CD costs the same price and Rita bought four CDs. Therefore, we can divide the cost without tax by 4.

cost without tax / 4

The cost without tax is $58.80

$58.80 /4

$14.70

Each CD before tax costs $14.70
