To find the unit price (price per ticket) at each company, we can divide the total cost by the number of tickets in each pack.

  1. Costless:

    • Cost of 10 tickets: $70
    • Unit price = Total cost / Number of tickets = $70 / 10 = $7.00 per ticket
  2. Movies Unlimited:

    • Cost of 8 tickets: $60
    • Unit price = Total cost / Number of tickets = $60 / 8 = $7.50 per ticket

So:

  • Costless pack of 10 is $7.00/ticket.
  • Movies Unlimited pack of 8 is $7.50/ticket.
