Question

What are the steps in order to figure out this answer?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation

To answer the question, we will make have to find the unit rate to get the best price

For option 1

26 treats per $4

`unit\text{ rate=}\frac{\text{ \$}4}{26}=\text{ \$}0.1535`

For option 2

48 treats for 8 dollars

`unit\text{ rate =}\frac{\text{ \$}8}{48}=\text{ \$0.1667}`

Option 3

57 treats for 9 dollars

`unit\text{ rate=}\frac{\text{ \$9}}{57}=\text{ \$0.1579}`

Option 4

`unit\text{ rate=}\frac{\text{ \$16}}{100}=\text{ \$0.16}`

So the best is the one with the lowest unit rate

This is $0.1535

Which is
