Jon is trying to decide where to buy discounted movie tickets. Costless sells a pack of 10 tickets for $70, and the website, Movies Unlimited, sells them at 8 tickets for $60. What is the unit price at each company? (1 point)
Costless pack of 10 is $
/ticket. Movies Unlimited pack of 8 is $
/ticket.
The unit price at Costless is $70/10 = $7/ticket.
The unit price at Movies Unlimited is $60/8 = $7.50/ticket.
7.50 is right but the other number is wrong
I apologize for the incorrect calculation. Let me correct it for you.
The unit price at Costless is $70/10 = $7/ticket.
The unit price at Movies Unlimited is $60/8 = $7.50/ticket.
To find the unit price at each company, we need to divide the total cost by the number of tickets in each pack.
For Costless:
Total cost of the pack of 10 tickets = $70
Unit price = Total cost / Number of tickets = $70 / 10 = $7/ticket
For Movies Unlimited:
Total cost of the pack of 8 tickets = $60
Unit price = Total cost / Number of tickets = $60 / 8 = $7.50/ticket
So, the unit price at Costless is $7/ticket and the unit price at Movies Unlimited is $7.50/ticket.
