Question

the cost of 24 bottles of water is $6. which expression shows how to find the cost of 10 bottles of water?\
\\(\frac{6}{10} \times 24\\) \\(\frac{24}{10} \times 6\\) \\(\frac{6}{24} \times 10\\) \\(\frac{24}{6} \times 10\\)

Explanation:

Step1: Find unit cost

To find the cost of 1 bottle, divide total cost by number of bottles: $\frac{6}{24}$ dollars per bottle.

Step2: Calculate cost for 10 bottles

Multiply unit cost by 10: $\frac{6}{24} \times 10$.

Answer:

$\boldsymbol{\frac{6}{24} \times 10}$ (the third option)
