Question

A 16-oz bottle of parmesan cheese costs $5.78, while an 8-oz bottle costs $3.97. Which is the better buy? Round

Answer 1

Answer:

The 16-oz bottle is a better buy

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the better buy by finding which one has a lower price per ounce:

Calculate the price per ounce of both bottles by dividing the cost by the number of ounces

5.78/16

= 0.36

3.97/8

= 0.5

Since 0.36 is smaller than 0.5, the 16 ounce bottle is a better buy.

Answer:

The 16-oz bottle of parmesan cheese is the better buy.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is the better buy because, if you compare the prices and the ounces, I say that the 16-oz is the best buy.
