Solution

To find the average price per article, we first need to find the total cost of all articles and then divide it by the total number of articles.

Step 1: Calculate the total cost of each set of articles:

  • 13 articles at 70 each = 13 * 70 = 910
  • 15 articles at 60 each = 15 * 60 = 900
  • 12 articles at 65 each = 12 * 65 = 780

Step 2: Add up the total cost of all articles: 910 + 900 + 780 = 2590

Step 3: Calculate the total number of articles: 13 + 15 + 12 = 40

Step 4: Divide the total cost by the total number of articles to find the average price per article: 2590 / 40 = 64.75

So, the average price per article is 64.75.
