Question

I have a $1.50. If I walk into a shop and I go to the checkout and in my shopping cart is a pack of chips that cost a $1.50 and then a person robs the whole store should I:

A: Buy the potato chips.

B: Run with the potato chips out of the store.

C: Run out of the store and leave the potato chips in the shopping cart.

D: Ask how this question is helping me improve my math skills.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

I know you are not supposed to answer D, but it actually is a pretty good question to ask, perhaps of your teacher. Mathematically I don't really know what you should answer.

I don't think you should answer B. I'm certain this is an ethics question of some sort. What you are proposing with this answer is theft.

I don't think I'd buy the chips. My instincts would be to run out of the store.

I guess I'd pick C.
