Answer:

30¢ off on one pound of margarine usually selling for 74¢ a pound

Explanation:

The best buy is always the one that is available on low price. If a same item is available for two prices, we always choose the one with lower price.

Given options are :

1-margarine at 87¢ per pound

2-30¢ off on one pound of margarine usually selling for 74¢ a pound

The best buy is 30 cents off on one pound of margarine usually selling for 74 cents a pound.

This becomes
74-30=44 cents per pound.
