Guys please help.

Answer 1

A - True

B - False

Explanation:

Looking at option A,

Company B had 3.12 subscribers and earned 119. To find each subscriber's value we divide 119 by 3.12

119/3.12 = 38.14

Looking at Option B,

Company A had 2.45 subscribers and earned 108. To find each subscriber's value, we divide 108 by 2.45

108/2.45 = 44.08

Hence, for Option A, each subscriber paid about $40 is correct because it's close to 38.14

For Option B, each subscriber paid about 30 is incorrect since it's way over, 44.08.

Thus,

A - True

B - False
