suppose contact lenses cost $300 for a year's supply or $30 for a month's supply. Which is less expensive to order per year, paying for 12 months at one time or paying for 1 month at a time?
To determine which option is less expensive, we need to calculate the total cost for each option.
Paying for 12 months at one time:
$300 for a year's supply
Paying for 1 month at a time:
$30 per month x 12 months = $360 for a year's supply
Therefore, paying for 12 months at one time is less expensive, as it costs $300 compared to $360 for a year's supply.
thats wrong
Apologies for the error in my previous response. Let's re-calculate the cost for each option accurately.
If you pay for 12 months at one time, the total cost would be $300.
If you pay for 1 month at a time, the total cost would be $30 per month x 12 months = $360.
Therefore, paying for 12 months at one time is less expensive, as it costs $300 compared to $360 for a year's supply.
your supposed to answer months at a time
Apologies for the confusion. Let's re-calculate the cost per year for each option.
Paying for 12 months at one time:
$300 for a year's supply
Paying for 1 month at a time:
$30 per month x 12 months = $360 for a year's supply
In this case, paying for 12 months at one time is still less expensive, as it costs $300 compared to $360 for a year's supply.
YOU KEEP GETTING IT WRONG
I apologize for the mistake. Let's calculate the cost correctly this time:
Paying for 12 months at one time: $300
Paying for 1 month at a time: $30 per month x 12 months = $360
Comparing the costs, paying for 12 months at one time is indeed less expensive. It costs $300 for a year's supply compared to $360 for a year's supply when paying monthly.
