Answer 1

To answer this question, you need to determine which one has a lower price per unit. In this scenario, you must divide the price of the cloths by their length in feet.

For the 2-yard piece of cotton cloth, first convert the length to feet. There are three feet in a yard, so the cloth is 6 feet. Then divide:

13.26/6=2.21

For the 17-foot piece of cotton cloth, simply divide:

55.93/17=3.29

The 2-yard piece of cotton cloth for $13.26 is the better buy because it has a lower unit price.

Hope this helps!!
