A.The large box contains twice as many ounces of strawberries as the small box. TRUE
B.To get the maximum ounces for her money, Emma should buy 1 large and 1 small box of strawberries. TRUE
C.Emma spends a total of $11.00; therefore, she is purchasing 2 small boxes of strawberries. FALSE
D.Emma purchases a small box and a medium box of strawberries. The total purchase is $11.75. FALSE
Explanation:
Here, the amount Emma has to be spent = $12
According to the question:
Small box -- 8 ounces --$4.50
Medium box -- 12 ounces -- for $6.50
Large box -- 1 pound -- $7.25
Now, the given statements are:
A.The large box contains twice as many ounces of strawberries as the small box.
The amount of strawberry in large box = 1 pound
Amount of strawberry in small box = 8 ounce
Now, double of 8 ounce = 16 ounce = 1 pounds
So, the given statement is TRUE.
B.To get the maximum ounces for her money, Emma should buy 1 large and 1 small box of strawberries.
Total ounces in 1 large and 1 small box = 16 ounce + 8 = 22 ounces
The price total = $4.40 + $7.25 = $11.65
So, the given statement is TRUE.
C.Emma spends a total of $11.00; therefore, she is purchasing 2 small boxes of strawberries.
cost of 1 small box = $4.50
Cost of 2 small box = 2 x $4.50 = $9
The given statement is FALSE
D.Emma purchases a small box and a medium box of strawberries. The total purchase is $11.75.
cost of 1 small box = $4.50
Cost of 1 medium box = $6.50
So, the total cost is $4.50 + $6.50 = $11.00
So, the given statement is FALSE.
