Millie wants to take swimming lessons. She can purchase two different swim lesson packages. Package A is 20 lessons for $240. Package B is 15 lessons for $180.

Question

If Millie wants the better buy, which package should she choose?

Answer 1

To determine which package is a better buy, we need to compare the cost per lesson for each package.

Package A: 20 lessons for $240
Cost per lesson = total cost / number of lessons = $240 / 20 = $12 per lesson

Package B: 15 lessons for $180
Cost per lesson = total cost / number of lessons = $180 / 15 = $12 per lesson

Since both packages have the same cost per lesson ($12), it does not matter which package Millie chooses in terms of price.
