Answer:
The online price of $5.36 per book is the lower unit price.
To finally answer your question, the place with the lower unit price is online.
Step-by-step explanation:
$32.75/6 books
To find the price per book, we can divide the total price for 6 books by the number of books (6 books).
$32.75/ 6 books = $5.46 per book
We can now set up a ratio to find the price per book online.
$32.16/ 6 books
Now we can find the price per book by dividing the total price for 6 books by the number of books (6 books).
$32.16/ 6 books = $5.36 per book
We can now compare the prices to see which one is the lower price.
$5.36 per book online < $5.46 per book in store
I hope it will help you
