Question

Compare and Explain: Are they equivalent?

$3 for 6 bagels; $9 for 24 bagels

Answer 1

Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation: You want to find the unit rate for each bagel. 6/3 is 2 dollars, so each bagel is going to cost 2 dollars. If your getting 24 bagels for 9 dollars, 24/9 is 2 2/3 dollars for each bagel. 2 ≠ 2 2/3 so therefore, they're not the same.

Answer 2

24/6 is 4
so 4 x $3 is $12
they are not equivalent as 24 bagels would be worth $12 not $9 if they were equivalent
