Question

A daily newspaper sells monthly subscriptions for $15. Each individual copy of the newspaper costs $0.75. In a month that has exactly 30 days, how much could be saved by purchasing a subscription instead of purchasing an individual copy each day?

Answer 1

With the subscription, $7.5 will be saved.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

A daily newspaper sells monthly subscriptions for $15. Each copy of the newspaper costs $0.75.

First, we need to calculate the total cost of buying 30 newspapers individually:

Total cost= 0.75*30

Total cost= $22.5

Difference= 22.5 - 15= $7.5

With the subscription, $7.5 will be saved.
