Meg wants to take tennis lessons. In the chart, four instructors are listed with what they charge. Which instructor gives the best deal?

Mark $100 for 10 hours

Rick $80 for 9 hours

Steve $75 for 8 hours

Andy $60 for 5 hours



Answer :

So,

Mark wants $100 for 10 hrs., or $10/hr.

Rick wants $80 for 9 hrs., or [tex] \frac{80}{9} /hr. or [/tex] $8.89/hr.

Steve wants $75 for 8 hrs., or $ [tex] \frac{75}{8} [/tex] /hr. or $9.38/hr.

Finally, Andy wants $60 for 5 hrs., or $12/hr.

We can see that Rick offers the best deal, at $8.89/hr.

Mark charges $10.hour. Rick charges $8.89.hour. Steve charges $9.38/hour. Andy charges $12/hour. The best deal is to take tennis lessons from Rick.

So Rick would be the choice
