Question

A store owner sold 4 paint brushes for $12.00 and 8 pens for $3 20. What is the difference between the unit price of a paint brush and the unit price of a pen? 50 POINTS FOR THIS

Answer 1

$12/4=3 so each paint brush costs $3. $3.20/8=.40 so each pen costs $0.40. The difference between the unit price of a paint brush and unit price of pen gives you the equation 3-.40= $2.6

Answer 2

Answer:

$2.6

Step-by-step explanation:

12/4=3 that means each paintbrush cost $3

3.20/8=0.4 that means each pen cost $0.40

3-0.4=2.6
