Question

A 6 pack of soda costs $2.40. A 12 pack of the same soda costs $5.40. Which is

the better deal? Explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

The six pack for $2.40

Explanation:

As we all know, 6 is half of 12. So then, if the deals were to be equal, the price for six would be half of the price for 12. So $2.40 + $2.40 should equal $5.40. It doesn't. It equals $4.80, which is less than $5.40, which means that it is the better deal because you could buy two six packs and get it cheaper than a twelve pack.

Answer 2
