These practical math problems feature fifteen examples in which the reader looks at two prices and determines which one is the better buy. One can determine the better buy in a variety of ways. For example, one might determine the unit price for each by dividing the price by number of units for each and then comparing to see which is less expensive. Another strategy might include the use of algebra by determining which price would be equal to the other. One could write a fraction with the unit number over the price on one side with that being equal to the unit number over X on the other side of the equation. Cross multiply to solve for X to determine equivocal prices and then compare whether the given price is less than or more than the first price.
