To find the price of each item, you need to divide the total cost by the number of items.

$\text{Price per item} = \frac{\text{Total cost}}{\text{Number of items}}$

Given:

• Total cost = $6.45
• Number of items = 5

$\text{Price per item} = \frac{6.45}{5} = 1.29$

So, the price of each item is $1.29.
