A gardener buys a rake and a pair of gloves for each of the 12 volunteers in the gardening club. Each pair of gloves cost $8.00. The gardener spends a total of $300 on both rakes and gloves.
Enter an equation that models the situation with r, the cost of 1 rake.

Let unit cost of one rake be : r

Given : Total number of volunteers = 12

Given : Each pair of gloves cost $8.00

⇒   Cost of 12 pair of gloves for 12 volunteers = (12 × 8) = $96

Given : The gardener spends a total of $300 on both rakes and gloves

⇒   Cost of 12 rakes + Cost of 12 pair of gloves = $300

⇒   12r + 96 = 300

⇒   12r = 204

⇒   r = 17

Answer : Cost of one rake is $17

the answer is: the length is 5/6 yards.
