Question

A box of a dozen breakfast bars costs $3.72, while a different box of six breakfast bars cost $1.92. Which is the better deal for the consumer and by how much?

Answer 1

Answer:

Better deal : dozen bars for $3.72 (It is a better deal by 12 cents)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since one has half of the amount that the other has, you multiply the price by two, and you end up with (for a dozen) $3.72, (and for 2 boxes of 6) $3.84. So, the singular box of a dozen bars wins.

Answer 2

Answer: the box of dozen is cheaper by 0.12

Step-by-step explanation:

3.72 /12= 0.31

1.92*2= 3.84

3.84/12= 0.32

3.84-3.72=0.12
