Question

At Soap Sudz Laundromat, Bryce pays $2.50 per load of laundry. If he buys a loyalty card, he can wash 5 loads of laundry for $11.50. Which is the better

Answer 1

So you can find out which is better by determining the cost per unit (load) or by cost for the five loads. In this case, you can simply multiply $2.50 by the five to get $12.50. From this you can determine that the loyalty has the better price at $11.50 ($2.30 per load).
