Given:

A necktie costing $30.00 per dozen and selling for $5 each

Determine the cost of each.

Solution:

In order to determine the cost of each necktie, we simply needed to divide 30 by 12, since the total cost of 1 dozed or 12 pieces is $30.

= $30/12

=$2.5

Final answer:
Each necktie cost $2.5
