Answer 1

The  store is offering the best unit rate is  Grocery Store A.

The store with the lower unit rate offers the best rate. The unit rate is the total cost divided by the pound of bananas sold.

unit rate = cost / pounds

Unit rate of Grocery Store A: $0.75 / 12 = $0.0625

Unit rate of Grocery Store B: $3.75 / 5 = $0.75

Comparing the unit rates of both stores, Grocery Store A offers a lower unit rate.
