Answer 1

To find the cost per room of the less-expensive company, we need to calculate the cost per room for both Carpet Cleaning Pros and Spot on Cleaning.

Carpet Cleaning Pros charges $40 per room.
Spot on Cleaning charges $300 for six rooms.

To find the cost per room for Spot on Cleaning, we divide the total cost by the number of rooms:
Cost per room = total cost / number of rooms
Cost per room = $300 / 6 rooms = $50/room

Comparing the costs per room, we can conclude that Carpet Cleaning Pros is the less-expensive company with a cost per room of $40.
