A grocery store sells a six pack of bottled water for $3.79, a nine pack for $4.50 and a 12 pack for $6.89 which package costs the least per bottle? explain your reasoning.

So to find out how much each bottle costs you have to multiply the cost with the number of bottles.

$3.79 / 6 = $0.63

$4.50 / 9 = $0.5

$6.89 / 12 = $0.57

So the package that cost least per bottle would be the 9 pack for $4.50 because each of the bottles cost $0.5.

Hope this Helps!!

Pack of 9 it is the better option because
6 packs of water each water would cost 0.63 cents, the pack with 9 water 0,50(better)and the pack w 12 0,57
