While grocery shopping,' for example, a memory feature allows you to de­ termine the better buy between competing prod­ ucts and calculate sales tax -- all while you kelp a running tab of the total bill. The type of memory you buy determines the num- bef of entries you need to make in solving such problems. Rockwell sug­ gests you make sure you understand how the cal­ culator you select works before you buy it The following items may be totaled in a few steps, Including sales tax com­ putations and a better buy selection: /) Mayonnaise , $129 8 cans cat food -- ea. .25 + 6% tax Vinegar .59 Cereal: Box A 10 ozs. at .64 Box B 13 ozs. at .73 (Determine the better buy) Peanut Butter 1.19 Total "5^92 To determine the better buy of two choices, divide the price .of item A by the ounces contained in it, then multiply this price per ounce by the ounces contained in item B.
