Explanation:

The question is incomplete as the dimensions of tubs used by theatre A and B is missing.

However, I'll solve the question as follows.

First, it should be noted that the tub with highest volume gives the best deal.

This is so because both pop corns go for the same price of $5 and the tub with the highest volume contains more popcorn.

The volume of a rectangular prism is calculated by

Volume = Length * Breadth * Height

Take for instance, the dimension of tub A is length = 4cm, breadth = 5cm and height = 6cm

And the dimension of tub B is length = 3cm, breadth = 7cm and height = 5cm

The volume of tub A (theatre A) = 4cm * 5cm * 6cm

Volume = 120cm³

The volume of tub B (theatre B) = 3cm * 7cm * 5cm

Volume = 105cm³

Because the volume of tub A is greater than that of tube B, then tube A offers the best deal

If you apply this steps in your question, you'll arrive at the right answer.
