Noah ordered 16 cupcakes and paid $40. Jada ordered 52 cupcakes and paid $104. Did they pay the same rate?

no they didn’t,

16 x 2 = 52 cupcakes

$40 x 2 = $80

Jada did NOT pay the same rate, she payed $24 more that Noah

No

Reason: 40 divided by 16 is 2.5 and 104 divided by 52 is 2, so noah would have paid 5 cents more
