Maritza is buying a multi-pack of 3 pairs of socks for $25.98.

She will save $6.39 by buying a multi-pack instead of buying 3 individual pairs of the same socks.

It mean while buying individually 3 pairs of the same socks

Cost =[tex] 25.98+6.39=32.37 [/tex]

It mean the cost per pair =[tex] \frac{32.37}{3}= 10.79 [/tex]

Hence when bought individually each pair of socks cost $10.79
