Question

Basketballs sell for 27.99 each at the super D and for 21.59 each at the bargain spot. If the coach buys a dozen basketballs, how much can he save by buying them at the bargain spot

Answer 1

Answer:he saves $76.8 by buying them at the bargain spot

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of each basketball at the super D is 27.99

The cost of each basketball at the bargain spot is 21.59

If the coach buys a dozen basketballs, that is 12 basketballs,

The total cost of a dozen basketball at the super D is 27.99 × 12 = $335.88

The total cost of a dozen basketball at the bargain spot is 21.59 × 12 = $259.08

The amount saved by the coach by buying the basketballs at the bargain spot would be

335.88 - 259.08 = $76.8

Answer 2

What I did was 27.99-21.59 which equals 6.40 and then times that by 12 which brings you to 76.80
