Brittany brought her collection of Map Mosaics jigsaw puzzles to a secondhand store to sell.
She was paid cash for all 8 puzzles in her collection. Before she left, Brittany used $7.25 of
her earnings to purchase a used board game. She had $12.75 remaining,
Which equation can you use to find the amount of money, p, Brittany received for each puzzle
in her collection?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

8p - 7.25 = 12.75

That's the equation

If you want the actual value of p then solve it this way.

add 7.25 to both sides

8p = 12.75 + 7.25

8p = 20                   Divide by 8

p = 20/8

p = 2.50                 she received 2.50 for each puzzle.
