295/50 = $5.90 each
250/40 = $6.25 each
Thanks Ms.Sue..
That's what I got when I divided it. So the 50 T-shirts is the better deal.
Yes. 50 t-shirts is the better deal.
To determine which company offers a better deal, we need to calculate the price per t-shirt for each company.
For the first company, they make 50 t-shirts for $295, so we can divide the total cost by the number of t-shirts:
$295 ÷ 50 = $5.90 per t-shirt
For the second company, they offer 40 t-shirts for $250, so the price per t-shirt can be calculated as:
$250 ÷ 40 = $6.25 per t-shirt
After calculating the price per t-shirt, we can see that the first company offers a better deal, as their price per t-shirt is lower at $5.90 compared to $6.25 from the second company.
