Question

Hot dogs are sold of various sizes. Which of the three brands is the best to buy?

Number in pack. Price
A. 8 $4.48

B. 10 $5.56

C. 12 $6.12

Answer 1

In order to find the cheapest one, we have to find how much each one costs.

A. 8 hotdogs = $4.48

4.48 ÷ 8 = 0.56

1 hotdog = $0.56

B. 10 hotdogs = $5.56

5.56 ÷ 10 = 0.556

1 hotdog = about $0.56

C. 12 hotdogs = $6.12

6.12 ÷ 12 = 0.51

1 hotdog = $0.51

The best one to buy is C. 12 $6.12

Answer 2

The best brand to buy is C.

To find the answer, you need to divide each price by the amount.

A: $4.48/8 = $0.56/1

B: $5.56/10 = $0.56/1

C: $6.12/12 = $0.51/1

Hope this helps!!
