To calculate the savings per pair of glasses, we need to compare the prices of the two companies.
Company 1 sells glasses for $40 each.
Company 2 sells 4 glasses for $140.
To find the price per pair of glasses with Company 2, we divide the total price by the number of glasses: $140 / 4 = $35.
To calculate the savings per pair of glasses, we subtract the price from Company 2 ($35) from the price from Company 1 ($40): $40 - $35 = $5.
Therefore, Mrs. Hara will save $5 per pair of glasses if she uses Company 2.
