Question

Eva is at a sushi restaurant. She ordered 2 pieces of squid for a total of $3.50, 1 piece of eel for $3.25, 3 pieces of tuna for a total of $6.75, and 4 pieces of crab for $8.00. Which list shows the unit cost of each pieces of sushi from least to greatest?

Answer 1

Squid = $1.75
crab = $2.00
tuna = $2.25
eel = $3.25

Answer 2

Answer:

1) Squid = $1.75

2) Crab = $2.00

3) Tuna = $2.25

4) Eel = $3.25

Step-by-step explanation:

To Solve this problem we first need to calculate the value of each individual piece of Sushi and then organize from least to greatest.

The First Piece of Sushi Eva Ordered is 2 pieces of Squid for a total of $3.50 so one piece of Squid is $\frac{3.5}{2}$ = 1.75

The Second Piece of Sushi Eva Ordered is 1 piece of Eel for $3.25, since it is an individual piece we can skip this one.

The Third Piece of Sushi Eva Ordered is 3 pieces of Tuna for $6.75, so one piece of Tuna is $\frac{6.75}{3} = 2.25$

The Last Piece of Sushi Eva Ordered is 4 pieces of Crab for $8.00, so one piece of Crab is $\frac{8}{4} = 2$

Now we can organize the individual sushi units by cost from least to greatest.

1) Squid = $1.75

2) Crab = $2.00

3) Tuna = $2.25

4) Eel = $3.25
