Answer: location b

Explanation:

The rent of the house in location a per passerby is obtained as follows

(rent per passerby) = (total rent in location a)/(number of passerby)
                                = ($1,000)/140
                                = $7.14 (for location a)

Similarly, the rent per passerby in location b is given by

(rent per passerby) = (total rent in location b)/(number of passerby)
                               = ($1,500)/230
                               = $6.52 (for location b)

Hence, the rate of rent per passerby in location a is $7.14 while it is $6.52 in location b. Therefore, location b has lower rent per passerby.
