To find out the cost of each sweater, we need to subtract the cost of the skirt from the total amount spent before tax.
Subtracting the cost of the skirt ($20) from the total amount spent before tax ($160), we are left with $160 - $20 = $140.
Since Katie bought 4 sweaters and they each cost the same amount, we can divide the remaining total cost ($140) by the number of sweaters (4) to find the cost of each sweater.
So, $140 / 4 = $<<140/4=35>>35.
Therefore, each sweater costs $35.
4 s + 20 = 160
solve for s
