The correct unit price would be $1.08 per pair of gloves. What the contractor didn't notice was it was 7 <em>dozen</em> pairs of gloves, not just seven pairs. If it had been seven pairs, she would have been correct, but it was actually 84 pairs of gloves. She needed to divide 103.32 by 84 rather than 7.

The exchange rate in some prehistoric village was 6 jagged rocks for every 2 smooth pebbles. Also, one shiny rock could be trade
Scrat [10]

30 Jagged rocks are the same 3 shiny rocks using the exchange rates provided(i.e. option D)

What is an exchange rate?

Exchange rate means the rate at which one item exchanges hands with another, for instance, in this case, 6 jagged rocks are equivalent to 2 smooth pebbles.

6 jagged rocks=2 smooth pebbles

divide both sides by 2

6/2 jagged rocks=2/2 smooth pebbles

3 jagged rocks=1 smooth pebble

We can rewrite as below:

1 jagged rock=1/3 smooth pebble

30jagged rocks=1/3*30 smooth pebbles

30 jagged rocks=10 smooth pebbles

Now we need to convert 10 smooth pebbles to shiny rock equivalence

3 smooth pebbles=1 shiny rock

1 smooth pebble=1/3 shiny rock

10 smooth pebbles=1/3*10 shiny rocks

10 smooth pebbles=3 shiny rocks( even though it is 3.33, but the final answer should be rounded to a whole number)
