Let the amount received for the accessories be $x$. Therefore, the amount received for the electric saw is $9x$. The total amount received is $x + 9x = 10x = \$580$. Solving for $x$ gives $x = \$58$, so the electric saw sold for $9x = 9 \times \$58 = \$522$.

Solve -Greg Sold His Used Electric Saw and Accessories For $580\$ 580$580
