Solution

To find the cost of each cupcake, you need to divide the total amount spent by the number of cupcakes bought.

Step 1: Identify the total amount spent and the total number of cupcakes. In this case, Justine spent $105.40 on 85 cupcakes.

Step 2: Divide the total amount spent by the number of cupcakes.

So, 105.40÷85=105.40 ÷ 85 = 1.24

Therefore, each cupcake costs $1.24.
