The utility is maximised when the satisfaction in terms of marginal utilities obtained from each product is equal to each other.
We obtain this simply by dividing the marginal utilities for each fruit by their price, and comparing them.
Dmitiri:
Apples: 8/1 =8
Pears: 10/2 =5
8/1 is not equals to 10/2
Frances:
Apples: 7/1 =7
Pears: 16/2 =8
7 is not equals to 8
Jake:
Apples: 6/1 =6
Pears: 12/2 =6
The marginal utility is equal hence Jake's choice is optimal
Latasha:
Apples: 5/1 =9
Pears: 9/2 =4.5
9 is not equals to 4.5
