If one store is selling 3/4 of a bushel of apples for $9, and another stir is selling 2/3 of a bushel of apples for $9, which st
ore has the better deal?
1 answer:
When solving problems like these, the easiest thing to do is either turn both fractions into decimals or into fractions with a common denominator.
So 3/4 = 0.75 OR 9/12
And 2/3 = .666 OR 8/12
In solving the actual question, you're looking for the store that gives the better deal, meaning that they sell MORE apples for LESS.
The first store sells 9/12 of a bushel for $9 and the second store sells 8/12 of a bushel for $8.
The answer is the first store which sells 3/4 of a bushel for $9.
