Question

A store sells grass seed in small bags and large bags. The small bags have 7 pounds of seed for $27.93 and the large bags have 20 pounds of seed for $66.98. Which type of bag is the better buy? Explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

The 20 pound bag is a better by for only $66.98

Explanation:

The large bag is better because the small bag is $27.93 for 7 pounds 7x3=21,so 3x27.93=83.79 is $16.81 more than the cost for the large bag
