To determine which type of cracker has less sodium per cracker, we need to calculate the amount of sodium per cracker for each type of cracker.
For Cracker 1, we can divide the amount of sodium by the number of crackers:
520 / 20 = 26
1,040 / 40 = 26
1,560 / 60 = 26
2,080 / 80 = 26
2,600 / 100 = 26
3,120 / 120 = 26
For Cracker 2, we can do the same calculation:
200 / 16 = 12.5
400 / 32 = 12.5
600 / 48 = 12.5
800 / 64 = 12.5
1,000 / 80 = 12.5
1,200 / 96 = 12.5
Comparing the results, we can see that both types of crackers have the same amount of sodium per cracker, which is 26 milligrams. Therefore, neither type of cracker has less sodium per cracker.
The following tables show the amount of sodium for a given number of crackers for two types of crackers. Which type of cracker has less sodium per cracker? Cracker 1 Milligrams of Sodium Number of Crackers 520 20 1,040 40 1,560 60 2,080 80 2,600 100 3,120 120 Cracker 2 Milligrams of Sodium Number of Crackers 200 16 400 32 600 48 800 64 1,000 80 1,200 96 Cracker $$ has less sodium per cracker.
