Answer 2

Answer:

B. $5.08

Step-by-step explanation:

First find out how much the supermarket pays per dozen of eggs.

$8.00 / 12 dozen cartons per case = $0.66666

It costs the supermarket approximately $0.67 per dozen

Next find out the profit per dozen of eggs sold

$1.09 store price - $0.67 price store pays = $0.42

The supermarket profits about $0.42 per dozen sold

Finally find out the profit per case of eggs

12 dozen cartons * $0.42 profit per carton = $5.04

The supermarket makes about $5.04 per case so the best answer of the choices would be B. $5.08.
