Question

A sports store sells bicycle baskes at $40.00 for two. Another sports store sells bicycle baskets for $110 for five. Which store sells the baskets at the better rate?

Answer 1

The first store sells baskets at the better rate because 40.00 divided by 2 is 20.00 dollars for one but 110 dollars divided by 5 is 22 dollars so by going to the first store you are saving 2 dollars.
