1 answer

To determine how much more money Judy will make on the order of 4 standard frames compared to 4 specialty frames, we need to calculate the total cost for both types of frames.

1. Standard Frames:

  • Cost per frame: $52
  • Shipping fee: $24.99
  • Order: 4 frames

Total cost for standard frames = (Cost per frame * Number of frames) + Shipping fee
Total cost for standard frames = (52 * 4) + 24.99
Total cost for standard frames = 208 + 24.99
Total cost for standard frames = $232.99

2. Specialty Frames:

  • Cost per frame: $58
  • Judy pays the shipping cost (here we assume there's no additional shipping fee since it’s not provided).
  • Order: 4 frames

Total cost for specialty frames = Cost per frame * Number of frames
Total cost for specialty frames = 58 * 4
Total cost for specialty frames = $232

3. Difference in Earnings: Now, we find the difference in earnings between the two types of frames:

Difference = Total cost for standard frames - Total cost for specialty frames
Difference = $232.99 - $232
Difference = $0.99

Judy will make $0.99 more on the order of 4 standard frames compared to 4 specialty frames.

Therefore, the answer is 0.99.
