quantity price
50 $1.25
100 $2.25
200 $4.20
300 $11.25
Which quantity has the best unit price?
PLease explain so i could understand thanks for the help
AND
THE dimensions of rectangular parking lot are 330ft by 480ft
What is the area of the parking lot in square yards?
We need to find the price of one item.
50 for $1.25 = 1.25 / 50 = $0.025 each
100 for 2.25 = 2.25 / 100 = 0.0225 each
Do the others the same way. What do you find is the best price?
330ft = 330/3 = 110 yards
480 ft = 480/3 = 160 yards
A = L * W
A = ?
thanks
You're welcome.
i didn't understand the second question
You find the area of a rectangle by multiplying the length times the width.
In this problem, I converted feet to yards. Multiply the length times the width.
To find the quantity with the best unit price, we need to calculate the unit price for each quantity and compare them.
The unit price is calculated by dividing the price by the quantity.
For the given quantities and prices:
Quantity: 50, Price: $1.25, Unit Price: $1.25/50 = $0.025
Quantity: 100, Price: $2.25, Unit Price: $2.25/100 = $0.0225
Quantity: 200, Price: $4.20, Unit Price: $4.20/200 = $0.021
Quantity: 300, Price: $11.25, Unit Price: $11.25/300 = $0.0375
To determine which quantity has the best unit price, we look for the lowest unit price.
In this case, the quantity with the best unit price is 200, because it has the lowest unit price of $0.021.
Now, let's calculate the area of the rectangular parking lot in square yards.
To calculate the area, we multiply the length by the width.
Given dimensions:
Length: 330 ft
Width: 480 ft
To convert feet to yards, we divide by 3, since there are 3 feet in one yard.
Length in yards: 330 ft / 3 = 110 yards
Width in yards: 480 ft / 3 = 160 yards
Now, we multiply the length by the width to calculate the area.
Area = 110 yards * 160 yards = 17,600 square yards.
Therefore, the area of the rectangular parking lot is 17,600 square yards.
