How much cheaper is the lemonade on sale per bottle compared to the normal price per bottle?

Answer 1

Figuring you mean that it is 3.50 a bottle usually and 6 bottles are being offered for 13.50- this discount is 7.50 cheaper than the original

Answer 2

$1.25

Explanation:

Cost of 1 bottle of lemonade = $3.50

The grocery store is currently having a sale on lemonade which advertises 6 bottles for $13.50.

So, Sale price of 6 bottles = $13.50

So, Sale price of 1 bottle =
`(13.50)/(6)`

=
`2.25`

Now Difference between the normal price and sale price = $3.50-$2.25

=$1.25

Hence the lemonade on sale per bottle compared to the normal price per bottle is $1.25 cheaper .
