jeff wants to buy a phone card for long distance calls. he can buy a 200-minute card for $10.00 or a 300-minute card for $12.00.

Alenkasestr [34]

200 min / $10.00 = 20 minutes / dollar

300 min / $12.00 = 25 minutes / dollar 

The cost of the 300 minute card is cheaper per minute and a better value. 

If you don't expect to use more than 200 minutes then save your money and buy the smaller card.
