Five friends ate lunch and spent a total of $63.75. They each bought the same meal for $9.75, and they each bought the same dessert.
Write and solve an equation to determine the cost of the dessert, d.
Answer A | 5(9.75)d = 63.75; d = 1.31
Answer B | 5(9.75 + d) = 63.75; d = 3.00
Answer C | 5d + 9.75 = 63.75; d = 10.80
Answer D | 5(9.75) + d = 63.75; d = 15.00
