Question

You want to put a logo on each cell phone holder you make. Sew-on logos cost 2.30 for 10. Stick-on logos cost 9.40 for 100. Divide the cost by the number of logos for both types

Answer 1

`Rate = \$0.23` and
`Rate = \$0.094`

Explanation:

Given

Sew-on logos

Cost = $2.30

Units = 10

Stick-on logos

Cost = $9.40

Units = 100

Required

Divide cost by units, in both cases

When we divide cost by units, it gives the unit rate.

i.e.

`Rate = (Cost)/(Units)`

FOR SEW-ON LOGOS

Substitute $2.30 for Cost and 10 for Units

`Rate = (\$2.30)/(10)`

`Rate = \$0.23`

FOR STICK-ON LOGOS

Substitute $9.40 for Cost and 100 for Units

`Rate = (\$9.40)/(100)`

`Rate = \$0.094`

Hence, the solution is

`Rate = \$0.23` and
`Rate = \$0.094`
