Question

A store had 2 BLUE chairs for $22.78 or 6 RED chairs for $67.80.

Answer 1

Answer:

Blue chairs

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the unit rate of red chairs, you simply divide 22.78/2, which equals $11.39

So the unit rate of RED chairs is $11.39

To get the unit rate of the blue chairs, you simply divide 67.80/6 which equals $11.30

So the unit rate of BLUE chairs is $11.30

Unit rate is simply the cost of one item (in this case chairs) the unit rate stays the same. If we flipped the operation on blue chairs and did 11.30*6, it equals $67.80. The same goes for the red chairs, if we did 11.39*2 it equals $22.78.

Hope this helps!
