Acompany needs to package 2400 pencils. a box in the shape of a rectangular prism can hold 60 pencils. a cylindrical container can hold 80 pencils. each box cost the company $0.50, while each cylindrical container $0.75

Let’s solve to answer the question.

Divide the amount of pencils the company needs by the amount of pencils the box holds.

2,400/60=40.

Now multiply it by the price.

40*.5=$20.

Repeat.

2400/80=30

30*.75=22.5

The cylindrical containers cost less.

Hope this helps!
