Mrs. Tymes is buying mulch for her flower gardens. Which option gives her the best price per cubic yard of mulch?

The answer is below

Explanation:

The price list is attached.

From the price list, we can get the price per cubic yard of the mulch. This is done by dividing the price of the mulch by the total cubic yard of the mulch.

A) 3 yd³ for $165

Price per cubic yard = $165 / 3 yd³ = $55 per yd³

B) 4 yd³ for $240

Price per cubic yard = $240 / 4 yd³ = $60 per yd³

C) 6 yd³ for $300

Price per cubic yard = $300 / 6 yd³ = $50 per yd³

D) 8 yd³ for $360

Price per cubic yard = $360 / 8 yd³ = $45 per yd³
