Fundraising The robotics team needs new uniforms. The students plan to sell plush toy eagles (the school mascot) for $5 each
. The students find three companies on-line that sell stuffed mascots. Company A sells 12 eagles for $33.72. Company B sells 16 eagles for $44.48. Company C charges $42.60 for 15 eagles. Which company has the best buy?
Company B would be the best place to get their supply from. First, I multiplied all of the quantities by 5 (33.72*5)(44.48*5)(42.6*5) and got my sums. Then, I subtracted the price to be earned from selling the plush toys by the price of the bundle. Lastly, I compared the amounts earned by using each.
