Question

you can buy 3 apples at the quick market for $1.08. You can buy 5 of the same apples at stop and save for $2.40. which place is the better buy?

Answer 1

`(1.08)/(3)= 0.36`
So one apple at Quick Market is $0.36

`(2.40)/(5) =0.48`
So one apple at Stop and Save is $0.48.

Since one apple at Quick Market is cheaper, your answer would be Quick Market.

I hope this helps! =)

Answer 2

at the quick market each apple is 36 cents and at the other shop its 48 cents
so the first shop has the better deal by 12 cents
