Answer 1

To find out which store charges the least per balloon, we need to calculate the price per balloon at each store.

1. Parties R Us:
   Price: $4.80 for 16 balloons
   Price per balloon = $4.80 / 16 = $0.30 per balloon

2. Balloon Land:
   Price: $3.84 for 12 balloons
   Price per balloon = $3.84 / 12 = $0.32 per balloon

3. Balloons O Rama:
   Price: $3.69 for 9 balloons
   Price per balloon = $3.69 / 9 = $0.41 per balloon

4. Party World:
   Price: $4.35 for 15 balloons
   Price per balloon = $4.35 / 15 = $0.29 per balloon

Now, comparing the prices per balloon:

• Parties R Us: $0.30 per balloon
• Balloon Land: $0.32 per balloon
• Balloons O Rama: $0.41 per balloon
• Party World: $0.29 per balloon

The least expensive option is Party World, which charges $0.29 per balloon.
