The cost of one sandwich is $5.7

How to determine the cost of one sandwich?

The given parameters are:

Order = 3

Tax = 8% off

Total cost = $20.66

Tip = $5

The cost of one sandwich is calculated as:

Total cost = Order * Cost of One (x) * (1 - tax) + Tip

This gives

20.66 = 3 * x * (1 - 8%) + 5

Subtract 5 from both sides

15.66 = 3 * x * (1 - 8%)

Make x the subject

x = 15.66/[3 * (1 - 8%)]

Evaluate

x = 5.7

Hence, the cost of one sandwich is $5.7
