A package of 8-count AA batteries cost $6.16. A package of 20-count AA batteries cost $15.60. Which statement about the unit prices is true?

The unit prices will be within the range of $0.77 ≤x≤$0.78

Step-by-step explanation:

If a package 8-count AA batteries cost $6.16 and a package of same 20-count AA batteries cost $15.60, to calculate the unit price, the following steps must be carried out:

8 counts AA batteries = $6.16

A unit price (i.e 1 count) = x

Cross multiplying

8 × x = 6.16 × 1

x = 6.16/8

x = $0.77 for a unit price

Similarly, if 20-count AA batteries cost $15.60, then:

20 counta = $15.60

1 count = x

Cross multiplying

20 × x = $15.60 × 1

x = $15.60/20

x = $0.78 for a unit price

From above calculation, of can be seen that the unit price is almost similar but with a difference of $0.01 ($0.78-$0.77) which is insignificant. Based on this, we can conclude that a unit price of the battery is between the range

$0.77 ≤x≤$0.78

if i put something wrong your not gonna like it so rather not say nothing.
