Answer 1

Answer:

25 magazines for $70. (For why, read explanation)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the unit price of each of these deals by dividing the cost and the quantity.

$\frac{45}{15}$ = 3, so the first deal is $3 per magazine.

$\frac{70}{25}$ = 2.8, so the second deal is $2.80 per magazine.

Therefore, 25 magazines for $70 is a better deal.
