Kendra is also buying souvenirs for the family reunion. She wants to spend under $2.25 for each item.

Question

Which souvenirs cost less than $2.25 per item?

Check all that apply.

tote bags: 25 for $49.00
picture frames: 15 for $32.25
water bottles: 12 for $27.60
mugs: 8 for $15.92
T-shirts: 10 for $25.0

Answer 1

To determine which souvenirs cost less than $2.25 per item, we need to calculate the price per item for each option.

1. Tote bags: 25 for $49.00 \[ \text{Price per tote bag} = \frac{49.00}{25} = 1.96 \]

2. Picture frames: 15 for $32.25 \[ \text{Price per picture frame} = \frac{32.25}{15} = 2.15 \]

3. Water bottles: 12 for $27.60 \[ \text{Price per water bottle} = \frac{27.60}{12} = 2.30 \]

4. Mugs: 8 for $15.92 \[ \text{Price per mug} = \frac{15.92}{8} = 1.99 \]

5. T-shirts: 10 for $25.00 \[ \text{Price per T-shirt} = \frac{25.00}{10} = 2.50 \]

Now let's check which items are under $2.25:

• Tote bags: $1.96 (under $2.25)
• Picture frames: $2.15 (under $2.25)
• Water bottles: $2.30 (not under $2.25)
• Mugs: $1.99 (under $2.25)
• T-shirts: $2.50 (not under $2.25)

The souvenirs that cost less than $2.25 per item are:

• Tote bags
• Picture frames
• Mugs
