thx :D

Answer 1

Answer: (Supermart) Equation 1 = $2.70÷5 lb = $0.54 per lb

(Market One) Equation 2 = $2.60÷4 lb = $0.65 per lb

Since the unit price of bananas per lb in Supermart is less than the unit price of bananas per lb in Market One, Supermart has the better price.

Answer 2

Answer:

Market One

Step-by-step explanation:

Market one charges about $1.54 per pound and Supermart charges $1.85 per pound
