Answer 1

Complete Question:

You're planning to buy a new computer, monitor, and printer for your office. You've received the following prices from two stores:

Store 1 Store 2

Computer: 2,500 Computer: 2,350

Monitor: 595 Monitor: 435

Printer: 398 Printer: 349

Find the total package price from each store and then calculate how much you'll save if you purchase the less expensive package.

Answer:

`Total = 3493` --- Store 1

`Total = 3134` --- Store 2

`Saved = 359`

Explanation:

From store 1, the total cost is:

`Total = 2500 + 595 + 398`

`Total = 3493`

For store 2, the total cost is

`Total = 2350 + 435 + 349`

`Total = 3134`

By comparison: It is cheaper to buy from store 2

Because
`3134 < 3493`

Amount saved is calculated by subtracting the cheaper cost from the expensive cost:

i.e.

`Saved = 3493 - 3134`

`Saved = 359`
