Subtract the old amount from the new amount: 2.08-1.21=0.87.
Divide the difference by the old amount: .87/1.21=0.719 or .72 or 72% :)

Hi!

I believe the answer is D , because the common denominator is 12 .

3 times 4=12
4 times 3=12
2 times 6= 12

You multiply each fraction by 12/1 .

Hope it helps and have a wonderful day !

Suppose you are buying orange juice and you want to find the best deal. You find four different brands that offer various sizes
Alenkinab [10]

Answer: 3rd brand.

Step-by-step explanation:

1st brand:

6 oz cost $1.25

The amount per ounce will be:

= $1.25/6

= $0.21

2nd brand:

8 oz cost $1.33

The amount per ounce will be:

= $1.33/8

= $0.17

3rd brand:

12 oz cost $1.50

The amount per ounce will be:

= $1.50/12

= $0.125

4th brand:

16 oz cost $2.10

The amount per ounce will be:

= $2.10/16

= $0.13

From the calculation, the 3rd brand of orange juice is the better but as it's cheaper than others.
