The tables show the cost of different numbers of t-shirts ordered at two different stores, Store C and Store D: Store C Number of T-shirts Cost (in $) 2 $12 4 $24 8 $48 Store D Number of T-shirts Cost (in $) 3 $21 6 $42 9 $63 Which of these explains which store has a better buy?

Answers

  1. Answer: Store C is a better buy
    Step-by-step explanation: To find the better buy or cheaper cost for a shirt then we’ll need to find the unit rate. Or look for the price for 1 shirt in each store. Divide the cost to the shirts given to get the cost of 1 shirt.
    Store C: 2 shirts cost $12 –> $12/2= $6 for 1 shirt
    Store D: 3 shirts cost $21 –> $21/3= $7 for 1 shirt
