Respuesta :
The best buy would be A. Why? $1.10/10 is .11 and it is the least amount of money between the others.
Answer:
Bag (a) of pretzels is the best to buy.
Step-by-step explanation:
Three different bags of pretzels are sold at the store.
We are asked to find which bag is the best to buy?
Since the bag whose per unit cost is less will be profitable to buy.
Bag a)
10 ounces cost $ 1.10
Hence cost of 1 ounce= $ (1.10/10)= $ 0.11
Bag b)
12 ounces for $ 1.38
Hence, cost of 1 ounce= $ (1.38/12) = $ 0.115
Bag c)
6 ounces for $ 0.84
Hence, cost of 1 ounce=$ (0.84/6)=$ 0.14
Hence, the bag of pretzels which is best to buy is bag (a).
( since the per unit cost is minimum in bag (a) as compared to other two bags)
