Question

  1. bianca needs to purchase 6 dining chairs to go with her new dining table. based on the advertised sales shown in the table, determine the price of 6 chairs at each store. then circle the price of 6 chairs at each store. then circle the store with the better deal.

furniture land: ____________
the style loft: ____________

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate price at Furniture Land

Since the sale is "Buy 5 chairs and get the 6th chair free", for 6 chairs, we only pay for 5 chairs.
The price per chair is \( \$34.20 \).
The total price \(=5\times34.20=\$171\)

Step2: Calculate price at The Style Loft

The price per chair is \( \$43.50 \). The original cost for 6 chairs is \(6\times43.50 = 261\) dollars.
There is a \(30\%\) discount. So the price we pay is \((1 - 0.30)\times261\)

$$0.7\times261=\$182.7$$

Answer:

Furniture Land: \(\$171\)
The Style Loft: \(\$182.7\)
The store with the better deal is Furniture Land.
