Question

You are planning to take a group of friends to the movies for your birthday. The local movie theater charges $12.99 per

person. When you check the company's website, you find that they also offer a special group rate. The group rate is only $8.99
per person, but also includes a $20 reservation fee in addition.
What is the minimum number of people that would need to attend your party in order for the group rate to be a better deal?
A
4 people
B)
5 people
Eliminate
6 people

Answer 1

6 people. With 4 people the first option ($12.99 per person) was cheaper, with 5 people they cost the same, so 6 people would be the minimum for the other to be cheapest
