Question

Store A sells 11 bagels for 9.57 Store B sells bagels for 3.52. How do the unit rates compare?

Answer 1

11 Bagels = $9.57
________ _______
? Bagels = $3.52

Now they look like fractions but you have to cross multiply them like this: 11 x $3.52 which makes $38.72 then you divide $38.72 by $9.57 which makes the answer that you have to find which is 4.04597701 or just to round 4 and then that will be your answer.
