Girl scouts make about $0.70 per box of cookies sold. If they need to earn $595 for a new tent for their camping trip, which equation can be used to determine how many boxes they would need to sell? Solve the equation

• 595+ x = 0.70; x = 595.70

• x/0.70 = 595; x =416.5

• 0.70x = 595; x = 850 

• 595 - x = 0.70; x = 594.30
