Question

You work delivering food for a local farmer. You sell eggs from the farm at a price of 3 for $2.00, 6 for $3.50, 12 for $6.00, and 24 for $13.00. What is the unit cost per egg for the worst deal?

A.
$0.50
B.
$0.67
C.
$1.50
D.
$1.85

Answer 1

A.

$0.50

Explanation:

For $2, there are 3 eggs. that means .67$ for a single egg

For 6 eggs it costs $3.5

This costs out to be marginally more than .5$

While 12 eggs are for .5$

This is the least of the option available.

Hence, it is the worst deal available for the seller.
