Solve the following problem.

If 843 units cost $16,421.40 to produce, how much does each unit cost to produce to the nearest cent?

A)19.47
B)19.48
C)20.00
D)19.50

Respuesta :

It costs 19.48, because $16,421.40 / 843 comes out to 19.479, and 19.479 rounds to 19.48. So the answer is B $19.48.

Hope this helps :)

Answer: B) 19.48.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we simply have to divide the cost of the whole production (16,421.20) by the number of units produced (843).

Mathematically speaking

16,421.40 / 843 =19.4797153

Rounded to the nearest cent:

19.4797153 = 19.48 (since the digit after the hundredth place is higher than 5)

So, the correct answer is option B) 19.48.
