Question

Store A:
Store B:
Store C:
Store D:

Answer 1

To find the unit price of a loaf of bread at each store, we need to divide the total price by the number of loaves.

Store A:

• Price: $5.94 for 3 loaves
• Unit price = $5.94 / 3 = $1.98 per loaf

Store B:

• Price: $7.80 for 4 loaves
• Unit price = $7.80 / 4 = $1.95 per loaf

Store C:

• Price: $10.05 for 5 loaves
• Unit price = $10.05 / 5 = $2.01 per loaf

Store D:

• Price: $12.12 for 6 loaves
• Unit price = $12.12 / 6 = $2.02 per loaf

Here are the calculated unit prices:

• Store A: $1.98 per loaf
• Store B: $1.95 per loaf
• Store C: $2.01 per loaf
• Store D: $2.02 per loaf
