Question

Hopper Middle School wants to buy 40 t-shirts for the soccer team. They look at two stores to see which will give them the better deal. Store A charges $6.96 per shirt. Store B said the total cost for all 40 shirts would be $325, but they will give the school a 20% discount. Which store has the better deal?

How much will the shirts cost from store A?

How much will the shirts cost from store B?

How much does one shirt cost from store B?

Answer 1

store A is 278.4 and store B is 260 and the cost for one shirt from store b is 8.125

Step-by-step explanation

6.96 x 40 gives you 278.4

325 - 20% gives you 260

325 divided by 40 gives you 8.125

then to check your answer you multiply 40 and 8.125 and it gives you 325
