Answer:

Office A will pay $24 more

Step-by-step explanation:

Office A pays $48 for 36 reams

Office B pays $72 for 60 reams

180/36 = 5; therefore, multiply 48 by 5 to get the total paid for 180 reams, which is $240

180/60 = 3; therefore, multiply 72 by 3 to get the total paid for 180 reams, which is $216
