A store can buy six cartons of eggs for $48 or five carton of eggs for $45 it is cheaper to buy six carton of eggs than five cartons how much less does each carton cost if the store buys six cartons
To calculate how much less each carton costs if the store buys six cartons instead of five, we can first find the cost of one carton of eggs in each scenario.
If the store buys six cartons for $48, then the cost of one carton is $48 / 6 = $8.
If the store buys five cartons for $45, then the cost of one carton is $45 / 5 = $9.
Therefore, each carton costs $9 - $8 = $1 less if the store buys six cartons instead of five.
