Answer:

Cereal A is cheaper by $0.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of a 10-ounce box of Cereal A = $2.70

So,

Cost of a 1-ounce box of Cereal A = \frac{2.70}{10}=\$0.27

Cost of a 15-ounce box of Cereal A = 0.27(15)=\$4.05

Also,

Cost of a 13-ounce box of Cereal B = $3.64

So,

Cost of a 1-ounce box of Cereal B = \frac{3.64}{13}=\$0.28

Cost of a 15-ounce box of Cereal B = =0.28(15)=\$4.2

Here,

Cost of a 15-ounce box of Cereal B - Cost of a 15-ounce box of Cereal A = 4.2-4.05=\$0.15

Therefore,

Cereal A is cheaper by $0.15
