Company A sells 21 Bulldogs for $52.12. company b sells 17 Bulldogs for $43.89. Company c sells 12 Bulldogs for $35.67. Whitch company has the best deal?

Answer 1

ANSWER

Company A has the best deal.

EXPLANATION

We have that:

- Company A sells 21 Bulldogs for $52.12

- Company B sells 17 Bulldogs for $43.89

- Company C sells 12 Bulldogs for $35.67

To find which company has the best deal, find the price per bulldog by dividing the total prices by the number of toy bulldogs sold.

Company A:

Price per bulldog = 52.12 / 21 = $2.48

Company B:

Price per bulldog = 43.89 / 17 = $2.58

Company C:

Price per bulldog = 35.67 / 12 = $2.97

As we can see, Company A has the least price per bull dog, so Company A has the best deal.
