To find out how much Mrs. Hara will save per pair of glasses, we need to compare the prices of buying one pair of glasses from each company.
Company 1 sells one pair of glasses for $40.
Company 2 sells 4 pairs of glasses for $140.
To find out the price per pair from Company 2, we divide the total price by the number of pairs: $140 / 4 = $35.
Therefore, Mrs. Hara will save $40 - $35 = $5.00 per pair of glasses if she uses Company 2.
The correct answer is $5.00.
