QuestionIf a group plays 4 games, how much more do they spend buying individually at \$4.40 each vs. 2-game packs at \$8.40?
Studdy Solution
STEP 1
Assumptions1. The cost of1 game is \$4.40. The cost of games is \$8.403. The group wants to play4 games4. We are comparing the cost of buying games one at a time versus buying the-game packs
STEP 2
First, we need to find the total cost if the group buys the games one at a time. We can do this by multiplying the cost of1 game by the number of games.
STEP 3
Now, plug in the given values for the cost of1 game and the number of games to calculate the cost if the group buys the games one at a time.
STEP 4
Calculate the total cost if the group buys the games one at a time.
STEP 5
Next, we need to find the total cost if the group buys the2-game packs. We can do this by dividing the number of games by2 (since each pack contains2 games) and then multiplying by the cost of2 games.
STEP 6
Now, plug in the given values for the number of games and the cost of2 games to calculate the cost if the group buys the2-game packs.
STEP 7
Calculate the total cost if the group buys the2-game packs.
STEP 8
Now that we have the total cost for both buying options, we can find the difference in cost by subtracting the cost of the2-game packs from the cost of buying the games one at a time.
STEP 9
Plug in the values for the cost of buying the games one at a time and the cost of the2-game packs to calculate the difference in cost.
STEP 10
Calculate the difference in cost.
The group will spend $0.80 more by buying the games one at a time instead of buying the2-game packs.
