Answer: $8.00

Solution: If the average of all 4 pies is the same as the price of the peach pie, then the average of the first 3 pies must be equal to the price of the peach pie. To find the average price of the pies, we add the prices of the first 3 pies together, then divide by 3.

$6.00 + $11.00 + $7.00 = $24.00

$24.00 ÷ 3 = $8.00
