Along with the flowers , samantha bought 4 packages of glass beads and 2 vases . the vases cost $3.59 each and the total sales tax was $1.34. the total amount she paid was $28.50, including the tax. explain a stragety she could use to find the cost of 1 package of glass beads.

Samantha bough 4 packages of glass beads and 2 vases along with the flowers.
=> Vases costs = 3.59 dollars each
=> each total of sales tax = 1.34 dollars each
The total amount she paidis 28.50 dollars including the tax.
Simply add the price of vase and sales tax each then add.
=> 3.59 + 1.34 = 4.93
=> 4.93 * 2 = 9.86 (times 2 because there are 2 vases)
Now, subtract this with the total amount she paid.
=> 28.50 – 9.86 = 18.64
Since there are 4 glass beads, divide this by 4
=> 18.64 / 4 = 4.66 , the price of glass beads with tax.
