We want to see which offer is the best one to buy 40 batteries, by using algebra we will see that the best offer is offer-B

<h3>How to find the best offer?</h3>

Here we just need to see which would be the cost of 40 batteries which each offer.

For offer-A, a pack of 4 costs £2.52 and we have 1/3 off.

For 40 batteries the cost will be 10 times the above quantity, we get:

10* £2.52 = £25.20

But there is a 1/3 off, so the cost would be 2/3 of the above quantity:

£25.20*(2/3) = £16.80

For offer-B we know that a pack of 5 costs £2.75, so you need to buy 8 of these. And for each 3 you get one free, so you need to buy 6 (and get 2 free ones). The cost of 6 of these is:

6*£2.75 = $16.50

From this, we can conclude that offer-B is the best one.

4. The students in Mr. Michael’s art class are decorating a booth for Harvest Day. They have blue cloth that is 60 inches long,

MrRissso [65]

Length of blue cloth is 60 inches , length of gold cloth is 48 inches and length of white cloth is 72 inches.

a.

As, the length of all pieces are equal, so for getting the greatest possible length of the pieces, we need to find GCF(greatest common factor) of 60, 48 and 72.

First we will factor out all three numbers completely......

$60=2*2*3*5\\ \\ 48=2*2*2*2*3\\ \\ 72=2*2*2*3*3$
