Answer:

He would pay less at the garden store.

Explanation:

We have to find the unit prices of both shrubs.

The unit price is the cost per unit, and to find the unit price, divide the price by the number of units.

72/6 = 12

77/7 = 11

He would pay less at the garden store because the unit price is lower than the nursery.
