Question

Wich cost more 8 printers priced at $145 per printer or 3 laptops priced at $439 per computer?

Answer 1

So we want to find out which costs more: 8 printers, or 3 laptops.

1.) Find the individual pricing for each. In this case, it's given to us.
8 printers, $145 each
3 laptops, $439 each

2.) Multiply the price by the amount of product you have. So:
8 (printers) × $145 (per printer) = $1160 (total cost of printers)
3 (laptops) × $439 (per laptop) = $1317 (total cost of laptops)

3.) Compare the two prices, and remember that you're looking for the product that costs more.
$1160 < $1317

The laptops cost more.
