Answer:

Office World

Explanation:

first of all, we need to find thr cost of one pencil, and so, for ofrice emporium we divide 15 by 1.80 which equals to 0.12 for one pencil. on the other hand, for office world, we divide 12 by 1.32 which equals to 0.11, so in conclusion, office world has a better deal because its cheaper ( 0.11 < 0.12 )
