Final answer:

Grace paid less per light than Travis.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine who paid less per light, we need to find the cost per light for both Grace and Travis.

For Grace, she paid $54.40 for 8 lights, so the cost per light is $54.40 / 8 = $6.80.

For Travis, he paid $40.25 for 5 lights, so the cost per light is $40.25 / 5 = $8.05.

Therefore, Grace paid less per light than Travis.

Grace paid 6.80 per light because 54.40 divided by 8 is 6.80

Trvais paid 8.05 per light because 40.25 divided by 5 is 8.05

so therefore, grace paid less
