It costs $12.50 to see a movie at a theater near Jason's house. It costs only 1.95 to rent a DVD from an online service. A DVD player costs $125. To the nearest whole number, how many movies must Jason watch on DVD instead of at the theater before he recovers the cost of the DVD player?

Answer 1

Each DVD he watches instead of going to the cinema saves: $12.50 - $1.95 = $10.55

So how many $10.55s are there in $125?

Answer 2

12
