Question

Jill bought 8 pounds of potatoes at a local wholesaler for $18. Her friend Jack bought 6 pounds of potatoes at the supermarket for $15. Jack thinks he got the better deal because $15 is less than $18. Is Jack correct? Why or why not.

Answer 1

Answerer Latoya got a better deal because she paid less than Herman by 25 cents

Explanation:

Latoya 18 divided by 8= $2.25

Herman 15 divided by 6= $2.50

So Latoya saves $0.25 cents
