Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the answer because:

1) 12:5 is equivalent to the ration 24:10

2) This is because to get 24 you have to multiply 12 and 2 which is 24

3) Next, you have to do the same to the other side to make everything equal. Therefore, you have to multiply 5 with 2 which is 10.

4) Finally, your answer should be 24:10

Hope this helps! :D

Answer: the 20 fluid ounces is better

Step-by-step explanation:

If you divide 20 by 4.40 that is 4.54 but if you divide 24 by 4.80 that is 5. You want to divide 20 by 4.40 because 20 is the fluid ounces and 4.40 is the money divide that to get the cost per fluid ounce then you do the same with the 24 fluid ounces and by doing that you get the sot for 1 fluid ounce then look at both of your answers and see which one is less. which one is less is the better one.
