Answer:

Explanation:

To answer this question, we will find the unit rate for both of these places. To do this, we will divide the total cost by the number of hours.

The Boat Bunker:

$27 / 3 hours = $9 an hour

Oar City:

$45 / 9 hours = $5 an hour

$5 is less than $9, so the best value money-wise is Oar City.
