Question

At the used book store, all used mystery novels are the same price. Nathan spent $48 and Eva spent $56 on used mystery novels. What is the most each used mystery novel could cost?

Answer 1

$8

Explanation:

48 = 2×2×2×2×3

56 = 2×2×2×7

Max cost could be 2×2×2 = 8

Answer 2

The most the books could cost is 8 bucks.

Explanation:

To find this answer you mostly have to find unit rate.

Or you could subtract 56-48 to get your answer because each book cost the same so 8+48 +56

Hope this helps.
