Question

The wholesale club sells a large box of crackers with 12 reams of crackers for $9.89. Your local store’s box of crackers has 4 reams for $4.29. How much do you save by buying the 12 reams from the wholesale club?

Answer 1

We will first get the total amount when purchasing the 12 reams of cracker at the local store

local store total price= ($4.29) x 3
= $12.87
Difference = wholesale club price- local store price
=$12.87-$9.89
= $2.98
You will be able to save $2.98 dollars when you buy 12 reams of crackers at a wholesale club.
