Answer 1

3. $1.86

4. $1.38

Explanation:

3. Each CD costs $10.98, and with 5.25% sales tax, the total cost of each CD is:

$10.98 + ($10.98 x 0.0525) = $11.57

To find the maximum number of CDs that can be purchased without exceeding the gift card balance, divide the gift card balance by the cost per CD:

$25.00 ÷ $11.57 ≈ 2.16

Since you cannot buy a fraction of a CD, you can buy a maximum of 2 CDs. The total cost of the CDs will be:

2 x $11.57 = $23.14

Therefore, the balance on the gift card after the purchase will be:

$25.00 - $23.14 = $1.86

4. The cost of 12 individual chip bags at the local store is:

12 x $0.99 = $11.88

The cost of 12 bags bought in bulk at the wholesale club is $10.50. To find the savings per dozen bags, subtract the bulk price from the individual price:

$11.88 - $10.50 = $1.38

Therefore, you save $1.38 per dozen bags by buying in bulk.

Answer 2

1. A Whole sale club is a place where you can buy large quantities of supplies at cheaper prices. Whole sale clubs are those retail centers that sell a huge range and quantity of merchandise with low and attractive prices.

2. When buying in bulk you should buy only those things that you know are going to be used quickly or are non- perishable. If you buy things in bulk that do not have a longer shelf life, this will result in rotting of things and a lot of money wastage.
