Answer 1

There are some kinds of subscription to a newspaper given. We have to find which is the best buy for it. We will find each subscription for a year and check which one is the lowest.

$99 for a year.

$67 for 8 months.

So for 1 month we will get by dividing it by 8.

We know that there are 12 months in a year.

So for 1 month = $67/8 = $8.375.

For 12 months = $(8.375)×12 = $100.5

So when the subscription is $67 for 8 months, it will take $100.5 for a year.

$38 for 4 months.

For 1 month = $38/4 = $9.5

For 12 months = $(9.5)×12 = $114

So when the subscription is $38 for 4 months, it is $114 for a year.

$0.30 per day.

We know that there are 365 days in a year.

So for 1 day = $0.30

For 365 days = $(0.30) × 365 = $109.5

So when the subscription is $0.30 per day, it is $109.5 for a year.

So the lowest is $99 for a year.

So we can say $99 for a year is the best buy.
