screws sell at 8.50 per lb. how much will you save by buying a 100 lb box for 8.25?

Answer 1

Do you mean a 100 lb box for $825? If so, you'd normally pay $850 for 100 lb, and therefore you save $25. If you're actually getting a 100 lb box for $8.25, you'll save a whopping $850 - $8.25 = $841.75.

Answer 2

You save 25 cents.
This is a rather strange question the way you have it worded.
If you meant 100lb box for $8.25 per lb, then the answer is 100*.25= $25.

Answer 3

$25

Answer 4

you mean if the 100 lb box is $8.25 per pound?

if so, it would be a total of $825 rather than $850, so you save $25 dollars,

that was easy.

Answer 5

$25

Answer 6

100 lb box for 8.25
so 1lb of screws cost: 8.25/100 = 0.0825

savings per lb: (8.25 - 0.0825 ) = 8.1675

percentage savings = (8.1675/8.25) * 100 % = 99%

Answer 7

thats a really good deal. i cant say exactly how much because i dont know what other choses there are but that is a way good deal i mean think about it... a five pound box would equal 42.50... i think. and so to get 100 pounds for 8.25. that is exellent

Answer 8

You save .25 per pound times 100 pounds.
25 x 100 = 2500, then put the decimal in there (two spaces) $25.00. TA DAAAAAA!

Answer 9

$25.00 if you need 100 lbs of screws. If you don't need that many you will save nothing at all

Answer 10

Wow, the screws I've been buying sure cost a lot more than that..
