    Pack A has 7 markers for $17.5; Pack B has 11 markers for $33. Find each unit price and the better buy.

  3. Current unit

    Pack A has 4 markers for $6; Pack B has 9 markers for $18. Find each unit price and the better buy.

  4. Current unit

    Write 15% as a simplified fraction and decimal.

Answers and reasoning

Reveal the teacher answer key
  1. (0,0), (2,3), (4,6), (6,9); 6 tickets earns $9

    Scale both quantities by each batch count; plot horizontal tickets and vertical dollars.

  2. A $2.5/marker; B $3/marker; A is cheaper

    Divide each price by its marker count; compare 2.5 with 3.

  3. A $1.5/marker; B $2/marker; A is cheaper

    Divide each price by its marker count; compare 1.5 with 2.

  4. 3/20; 0.15

    15% = 15/100 = 3/20; divide by 100 for 0.15.

  5. 8

    20/100 × 40 = 8.
