To find out how much Mrs. Hara will save per pair of glasses, we need to compare the prices of the two companies.
In Company 1, the glasses are sold for $40 each.
In Company 2, the glasses are sold at 4 for $140. To find the price per pair, we divide $140 by 4, which gives us $35 per pair.
To find out how much Mrs. Hara will save per pair of glasses if she uses Company 2, we subtract the price per pair at Company 2 from the price per pair at Company 1: $40 - $35 = $5.
Therefore, Mrs. Hara will save $5 per pair of glasses if she uses Company 2. So the correct answer is $5.00.
To calculate the amount Mrs. Hara will save per pair of glasses if she uses Company 2, we need to compare the price per pair of glasses between the two companies.
Company 1 sells the glasses for $40 each, while Company 2 sells 4 glasses for $140. To find the price per pair of glasses at Company 2, we divide the total price by the number of pairs (4).
Price per pair of glasses at Company 2 = $140 / 4 = $35
To find the amount Mrs. Hara will save per pair of glasses, we subtract the price per pair of glasses at Company 2 from the price per pair of glasses at Company 1:
$40 - $35 = $5
Therefore, Mrs. Hara will save $5 per pair of glasses if she uses Company 2.
To find out how much Mrs. Hara will save per pair of glasses if she uses Company 2, we need to calculate the price per pair for each company.
For Company 1, the price per pair is $40.
For Company 2, we need to divide the total price by the number of pairs. Since 4 glasses are sold for $140, each pair will cost $140 / 4 = $35.
Now we can find the savings per pair by subtracting the price per pair from Company 2 from the price per pair from Company 1.
$40 - $35 = $5.00
Therefore, Mrs. Hara will save $5.00 per pair of glasses if she uses Company 2.
