Solution

Step 1: Determine the price of one sport ball. To do this, divide the total price of 5 sport balls by 5.

73.10÷5=73.10 ÷ 5 = 14.62

So, one sport ball costs $14.62.

Step 2: Determine the total price for 7 sport balls. To do this, multiply the price of one sport ball by 7.

14.62x7=14.62 x 7 = 102.34

So, if they sold 7 sport balls, they would have made $102.34.
