Answer:

6-pint container of window clearer for $3.84 is a better buy

Explanation:

141-fuid-ounce container of window clearer for $7.05

7.05 : 141 = 0.05

check your work: 0.05 x 141 = 7.05

so for the first offer you will be paying $0.05 per ounce of window clearer.

6-pint container of window clearer for $3.84

1 pint = 16 ounces

6 pints = 96 ounces

3.84 : 96 = 0.04

check your work: 0.04 x 96 = 3.84

for the second offer you will be paying $0.04 per ounce of window clearer. 6-pint container of window clearer for $3.84 is a better buy because you will be paying less for each ounce of window clearer.
