Answer :

$8.25 x 100 pounds= $825
$7.45 x 100 pounds= $745
825-745= $80
therefore you save $80

The amount saved is $0.80 or 80 cents.

Since Soil sells for 8 1/4 cents per pound, the coat for 100 pound sack will be:

= 8 1/4cents × 100

= 8.25 cents × 100

= 825 cents

Since 100 cents = $1

825 cents = 825/100

825 cents = $8.25

Since the 100 pound sack was bought for $7.45, the amount saved will be:

= $8.25 - $7.45

= $0.80
