Question

You go to Trader Joes with your older sister to pick up avocados to make guacamole. Trader Joes sells 4 avocados for $3.50 or 6 avocados for $5.00. Which is a better deal?

Answer 1

The better deal would be 6 for $5.00 because if you take 4/3.50=0.875 6/5=1.2 now that we know how much we would be paying for each option you take 0.875*6=5.25 so you would be paying more for the first one when u can get a greater quantity-for cheaper. Hope this helps:)
