Benny bought a soft drink for 2 dollars and 7 candy bars. He spent a total of 27 dollars. How much did each candy bar cost?

Calculate the candy bar spend:
Candy Bar Spend = Total Spend - Soft Drink
Candy Bar Spend = 27 - 2
Candy Bar Spend = 25

Calculate the cost of each candy bar:
Cost of each candy bar = Candy Bar Spend / Total Candy Bars
Cost of each candy bar = 25 / 7
Cost of each candy bar = 3.57
