Answer:

The second one is the better price

Explanation:

First of all, you have to find the unit rate of each. So, you divide dollars by gallon and for the first one you get 2.24 dollars per gallon and the second one you get 2.136667 so, obviously the second one is the ideal one because it have a lower unit rate
