An 11 lb turkey cost $15.00 while the 16 lb turkey is on sale for $20.00. How much would you save with the sale price? Please show work.

Find the base price per pound, $15/11, or $1.36 = 1lb, then multiply it by 16, 16 x 1.36 = $21.82. Now just subtract $20 from $21.82 = $1.82. So, You would save, on average, $1.82 by buying the sale.
