Obviously $2 is cheaper than $2.15...
Your answer is therefore 56 diapers for $28

Answer:

Online diaper deal is better and you will save $0.04 per diaper

Step-by-step explanation:

Case 1: Babies-R-Us

Cost of 56 diapers = $28

Cost of 1 diaper = [tex]\frac{28}{56}[/tex]

                          = [tex]0.5[/tex]

So, Cost of 1 diaper at Babies-R-Us  is $0.5

Case 2: diapers online

Cost of 112 diapers = $52

Cost of 1 diaper = [tex]\frac{52}{112}[/tex]

                          = [tex]0.46[/tex]

So, Cost of 1 diaper at diapers online  is $0.46

Difference between cost of 1 diaper of both cases = $0.5-$0.46=$0.04

So, online diaper deal is better and you will save $0.04 per diaper
