<span> 20. Let x represent the amount of books he had:

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

From our calculations the large jar is the best value for money because a penny buys more honey

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>In this problem we are expected to determine which purchase of honey is the cheapest ? large jar or small jar ?.</h2><h2 />

We will determine which has the best value for money using the quantity a pound can purchase.  

firstly for the large jar.

if £4.10 will purchase 540g of honey then,

   £1.00 will purchase xg

cross multiplying to find x will have

x=  \frac{1.00*540g}{4.10}

x= 131.7grams

Hence for the large jar a penny would buy 131.7g of honey

secondly for the small jar

if £2.81 will purchase 360g of honey then,

   £1.00 will purchase xg

cross multiplying to find x will have

x=\frac{1.00*360g}{2.81}\\x= 128.1gram

Hence for the small jar a penny would buy 128.1g of honey
