At a farmers market, 5 pounds of strawberries cost $21.50. At a supermarket, 3 pounds of the same quality strawberries cost $15.75. How much can you save by buying 20 pounds of the strawberries that are the better buy?

i would say at the supermarket bc you divide 15.75/3 and that equals 5.25. But if you divide by 20 you get.7875. You do the same thing and the number is higher for the farmers market.
