Answer:
The option with the best deal is 216 diapers for $39.98
Step-by-step explanation:
Sally is shoping for diapers
Sally first sees a box which contains 216 diapers at $39.98
She also sees a second box with 88 diapers for $24.99
To know which option that has the best deal for diapers we have to calculate the amount of 1 diapers in each of the boxes
Box 1
216 diapers= $39.98
1 diaper= x
Cross multiply
216x= $39.98
x= 39.98/216
= 0.19 cents for 1 diapers
Box 2
88 diapers= $24.99
1 diaper= x
Cross multiply
88x= $24.99
x= 24.99/88
= 0.28 cents for 1 diaper
Hence the option with the best deal is 216 diapers for $39.98, this is because it is more cheaper.
