Two gift shops sell postcards. Each gift shop charges a fixed amount per postcard. The prices, in cents, for different numbers of postcards at the first gift shop are shown in the table below.

OpenStudy (iara_ara):

The price per postcard at the second gift shop is 6 cents less than the price per postcard at the first gift shop. Which table shows the correct price for a certain number of postcards at the second gift shop? (M06.A-R.1.1.2, M06.A-R.1.1.3) (DOK = 3)

OpenStudy (iara_ara):

Here are the answer choices -

OpenStudy (iara_ara):

okay

OpenStudy (marziman):

They are 30 cents per post card at gift shop 1

OpenStudy (iara_ara):

ok

OpenStudy (iara_ara):

i get it you multiplied it by 30

OpenStudy (marziman):

To get that, I divided how much it cost for the post cards, by the number of post cards being purchased. For example I purchase 4 postcards for 120 cents. So I divided 120 by 4 to get 30

OpenStudy (marziman):

Therefore it is 30 cents.

OpenStudy (iara_ara):

so it has to be c 9x30=270

OpenStudy (marziman):

Do the same for each answer choice,

OpenStudy (iara_ara):

i did

OpenStudy (iara_ara):

the rest didn't match

OpenStudy (marziman):

Hold on let me see what you're doing here. Remember the question says "Gift shop 2 cost 6 cents less"

OpenStudy (marziman):

6 cents LESS per post card

OpenStudy (iara_ara):

oh yes

OpenStudy (iara_ara):

30-6=24

OpenStudy (marziman):

Option C is the equivalent of gift shop 1.

OpenStudy (marziman):

Yes.

OpenStudy (iara_ara):

so is it 8x24=192?

OpenStudy (marziman):

Yes :-) good job.

OpenStudy (iara_ara):
