(C) Two scoops for $4.28 is the best rate
(D) All of the prices per scoop have the same rate​

Answer 1

To find the best rate for ice cream scoops, we need to divide the price by the number of scoops.

• 2 scoops for $2.98 = $1.49 per scoop • 3 scoops for $3.69 = $1.23 per scoop • 4 scoops for $4.28 = $1.07 per scoop

Therefore, three scoops for $3.69 is the best rate at $1.23 per scoop.

Answer 2

(C) Two scoops for $4.28 is the best rate

Explanation:

each scoop is the cheapest at $1.07 in 4 for $4.28

2.98÷2=1.49

3.69÷3=1.23

4.28÷4=1.07

(A) Two scoops for the $2.98 deal is $2.98

(B) Two scoops for the $3.69 deal is $2.46

(C) Two scoops for the $4.28 deal is $2.14
