Answer:
you want to set each equation to 1 note book
Step-by-step explanation:
5 notebooks = 12.25 dollars
set the notebook to one an in order to do that you need to divide both sides by 5 like this
5 notebooks divided by 5 = 12.25 dollars divided by 5, which is
1 notebook = 2.45 dollars
for the other equation you do the same, set the notebook to 1
7 notebooks = 17.01 dollars
7 notebooks divided by 7 = 17.01 dollars divided by 7
1 notebook = 2.43 dollars
the second one costs less, so you want that 1
hope thats better, but it might be more confusing
