Question

Help what’s the answer

Answer 1

Difference=£2.4

Explanation:

Here in shop A

130 cm=£1.82

1 cm=£1.82/130

1 cm=0.014

Now

400 cm=0.014*400

=£5.6

Again, In shop B

235cm=£1.88

1 cm=£1.88/235

1 cm=£0.008

Now

400cm=0.008*400

=£3.2

Now,

Difference=£5.6-£3.2

=£2.4

Answer 2

The difference in price of 400 cm of ribbon between Shop A and Shop B is £2.40.

The table shows that Levi spent £1.82 on 130 cm of ribbon at Shop A and £1.88 on 235 cm of ribbon at Shop B. To find the difference in the price of 400 cm of ribbon between the two shops, we need to first calculate the price per cm of ribbon at each shop.

Shop A: £1.82 / 130 cm = £0.014 per cm

Shop B: £1.88 / 235 cm = £0.008 per cm

Since we want to find the difference in the price of 400 cm of ribbon, we need to multiply the price per cm at each shop by 400 cm.

Shop A: £0.014 per cm * 400 cm = £5.60

Shop B: £0.008 per cm * 400 cm = £3.20

Finally, to find the difference in price, we need to subtract the price at Shop B from the price at Shop A.

Difference in price: £5.60 - £3.20 = £2.40

Therefore, the difference in the price of 400 cm of ribbon between Shop A and Shop B is £2.40.
