Respuesta :

$8 because $84 minus $4 is $80 and $80 divided by 10 is $8

Answer: Cost of each ream of paper= $8


Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given question:

Total reams of paper Azul bought=10

Total spending of Azul to buy 10 reams of paper=$84

Tax on purchase paid by him= $4

Thus cost of 10 reams of paper=$84-$4=$80

Now, Cost of each ream of paper=[tex]\frac{$80}{10}=$8[/tex]

Therefore, Cost of each ream of paper=$8.
