Question

$5.00 and a 7-pound bag of charcoal costs $9.00. If Mr. McClellan want to buy the bag that gives him the best deal, which bag of charcoal would you tell him to buy?

Answer 1

To figure out which bag of charcoal would give Mr. McClellan the best deal, we can compare the prices of the two options. The bag of charcoal that costs $9.00 seems to be the better deal since it includes the charcoal and costs less than $5.00. So I would suggest Mr. McClellan go for the $9.00 bag!
