I'll do the first problem. You can do the second. I'll be glad to check it for you.

2.60/20 = $0.13 per worm

0.13 * 26 = $3.38 for 26 worms

you take 2.60 and take away the decimal pint to make it 260 then you divide 260 by 20 then put the decimal point in the answer as many spaces were in the original number XD
so it looks like 260/20=13 then it becomes 0.13
