Brand 2 is the best value ⇒ B
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us write the Brand, Number of Packets and Cost
- → Brand : Number of Packets : Cost
- → 1 : 12 : $10.68
- → 2 : 16 : $9.44
- → 3 : 18 : $15.30
- → 4 : 24 : $21.84
- → 5 : 30 : $20.40
We need to find what brand is the best value
To find that let us find the price of each packet in each brand, by dividing the price of the brand by the number of the packets, the cheapest price is the best
∵ Brand 1 has 12 packets
∵ The price of Brand 1 is $10.68
∴ The price of each packet = 10.68 ÷ 12 = 0.89
∴ The price of each packet in Brand 1 is $0.89
∵ Brand 2 has 16 packets
∵ The price of Brand 2 is $9.44
∴ The price of each packet = 9.44 ÷ 16 = 0.59
∴ The price of each packet in Brand 2 is $0.59
∵ Brand 3 has 18 packets
∵ The price of Brand 3 is $15.30
∴ The price of each packet = 15.30 ÷ 18 = 0.85
∴ The price of each packet in Brand 3 is $0.85
∵ Brand 4 has 24 packets
∵ The price of Brand 4 is $21.84
∴ The price of each packet = 21.84 ÷ 24 = 0.91
∴ The price of each packet in Brand 4 is $0.91
∵ Brand 5 has 30 packets
∵ The price of Brand 5 is $20.40
∴ The price of each packet = 20.40 ÷ 30 = 0.68
∴ The price of each packet in Brand 5 is $0.68
∵ The least price of a packet is in Brand 2
∴ The cheapest price is Brand 2
Brand 2 is the best value
