Answer:
Which is the better deal? Pack of 8 is a better deal.
Buy 4 of Pack One: $24.40
Buy 2 of Pack Two: $11.90
How much did you spend altogether? $36.30
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start with the Swag Bags. To figure out if something is a good price, divide the items inside of it by the price so you can get the $ per item and compare.
[tex]\frac{6.25}{6}[/tex] = $1.04 per item for Pack of 6
[tex]\frac{7.50}{8}[/tex] = $.94 per item for Pack of 8
Generally, saying "which item is the better deal" refers to which price per item is cheaper. In this case, Pack of 8 is a better deal.
Now, goodie bags.
Pack one costs $6.10 while Pack two costs $5.95.
"Buy 4 of Pack One: $" is asking for the price of 4 Pack Ones. To do this, you simply multiply the pack one price by 4, since you are buying 4 of them.
4 * 6.10 = $24.40
Same idea for Pack Two, just different price and different amount.
2 * 5.95 = $11.90
How much did you spend altogether? Add the total values for both goodie bag packs.
$24.40 + $11.90 = $36.30
