Answer:

The best deal is the pack of 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

A shopper needs 24 sandwich rolls.

The price of the six pack is $5.28 . If the shopper buy a pack of 6, so he needs to but 4 of this as he needs 24 in total.

Total amount to be paid is,

[tex]4\times 5.28=\$21.12[/tex]

The price of the four pack is $3.40 . If the shopper buy a pack of 4, so he needs to but 6 of this as he needs 24 in total.

Total amount to be paid is,

[tex]6\times 3.40=\$20.40[/tex]

Therefore, the best deal is the pack of 4.
