A shoe store was having a sale where 2 pairs of Brand A shoes cost $23.10 and 3 pairs of Brand B shoes cost $35.85. Which brand is the better buy?
Using our better buy calculator:
Calculate Unit Price
Unit Price = Price/Quantity
Calculate Unit Price 1:
Unit Price Brand A = P1/Q1
Unit Price Brand A = 23.10/2
Unit Price Brand A = 11.55
Calculate Unit Price 2:
Unit Price Brand B = P2/Q2
Unit Price Brand B = 35.85/3
Unit Price Brand B = 11.95
Since Brand A's Unit price is lower, Brand A is the better buy
