Susan paid $48.80 for eight dish towels. What is the unit price, p per towel?

If you would like to know what is the unit price p per towel, you can calculate this using the following steps:

$48.80 ... 8 dish towels

$p = ? ... 1 dish towel

48.80 * 1 = 8 * p

48.80 = 8 * p / 8

p = 48.80 / 8

p = $6.1

The correct result would be $6.1 per towel.
