To find the price per pair of glasses at Company 1, Mrs. Hara needs to divide the total price by the number of glasses: $40 / 1 = $40.
To find the price per pair of glasses at Company 2, Mrs. Hara needs to divide the total price by the number of glasses: $140 / 4 = $35.
To find the difference in price per pair of glasses, she needs to subtract the price at Company 2 from the price at Company 1: $40 - $35 = $5.
Therefore, Mrs. Hara will save $5 per pair of glasses if she uses Company 2.
