Respuesta :

Unit Price for bread A is 0.06 cents per ounce
Unit Price for bread B is 0.05 cents per ounce (rounded to the nearest thousandths/ cent)
So it would be better to buy bread b

Answer:

Best buy is answer choice (b).


Step-by-step explanation:

To get the unit price per ounce, we divide the total by number of ounces.

a. In cents: [tex]\frac{96}{16}=6[/tex] cents per ounce

b. $1.75 is equal to [tex]1.75*100=175[/tex] cents. So we have: [tex]\frac{175}{32}=5.47[/tex] cents per ounce


So we see that the second choice is "cheaper" per ounce, so second option, (b), is the best buy.
