James can buy a new computer for $600 and have it last 6 years, or buy 2 used computers for $200 each that each last 3 years. How much money will he save by picking the cheaper option? Give me reasons, before answering the question
First find the cost of the two used computers: $200 / computer * 2 computers = $400. Then subtract that cost from the cost of the new computer to find the savings: $600 - $400 = $200. So the final answer is 200.
