Question

Chicken strips at a restaurant sell for the following prices: 4 pieces for $2.40 6 pieces for $3.00 How much do customers save per chicken strip if they buy the larger quantity

Answer 1

10 cents

Explanation:

In order to answer this question we have to find how much each chicken strip costs individually.

Let's start with the 4 piece.

To find how much each piece costs we have to divide $2.40 by 4. Like this:

`(2.40)/(4) = .60`

In the 4 piece, every chicken strip costs .60 cents.

Now, let's do the 6 piece.

Like before we are going to divide $3.00 by 6.

`(3.00)/(6) = .50`

In the 6 piece, every chicken strip costs .50 cents.

Therefore, customers save 10 cents when they buy the larger quantity.

I hope this helps!

If you have any questions let me know!
