Question

HEB sells mangos for $2.50 each. Costco Sells them for $1.75 each but has a

membership fee of $50. How many mangos would you need to buy to have the 2 costs
equal each other?

Answer 1

$20.833

Explanation:

HEB:

Total cost = 2.50m

Costco:

Total cost = 50 + 1.75m

Where,

m = number of mangoes

HEB = Costco

2.50m = 50 + 1.75m

2.50m - 1.75m = 50

O.75m = 50

m = 50 / 0.75

= $20.833
