Question

Which is the better buy $10 for 2 pounds or $6 for 1 pound

Answer 1

$10 for 2 pounds is equal to $5 for 1 pound. If you want to save money, the better buy would be $10 for 1 pound since you spend less money but still get the same object.

If you don't want to save money, $6 for 1 pound is the better buy.

Answer 2

The better buy would be $10 for 2 pounds.

Explanation:

$10 for 2 pounds would be a better buy because if you divide 10 and 2 you get $5 per pound. But when you divide 6 and 1 you get 6 meaning $6 a pound. You always want the cheaper option.
