A package of six construction toys costs $14.94, not including tax. If purchased separately, each truck is $2.99, not including tax. What is the difference in the unit rate and the individual rate? Show your work or explain your thinking.

Divide total price for six by six to get unit price:

14.94 / 6 = 2.49 each

Buying one separately cost 2.99

Subtract to find the difference:

2.99 - 2.49 = 0.50
