Answer:
Let's evaluate the total cost at each store for the 12 shirts Janessa wants to buy:
Store 1: $11 each, $18 rebate with purchase of at least 6 uniform shirts
- Total without rebate: 12 shirts * $11 = $132
- Total with rebate: $132 - $18 = $114
- Cost per shirt: $114 / 12 shirts = $9.50 per shirt
Store 2: $10.25 each, $30 off with a purchase of $120 or more
- Total cost for 12 shirts: 12 shirts * $10.25 = $123
- Since the total is more than $120, she gets $30 off.
- Total with discount: $123 - $30 = $93
- Cost per shirt: $93 / 12 shirts = $7.75 per shirt
Store 3: $10 each, 20% off your entire purchase
- Total cost for 12 shirts: 12 shirts * $10 = $120
- 20% off of $120 = $120 * 20% = $24
- Total with discount: $120 - $24 = $96
- Cost per shirt: $96 / 12 shirts = $8 per shirt
Store 4: $12 each, Buy 4 shirts, get 2 free
- To get 12 shirts, she needs to buy 8 (because for every 4 shirts bought, 2 are free).
- Total cost for 8 shirts: 8 shirts * $12 = $96
- Cost per shirt: $96 / 12 shirts = $8 per shirt
From these calculations, we can see that the answer is:
c: Store 2, because she will only have to spend $93 and $93 ÷ 12 = $7.75 which is the least expensive per shirt.
