@Destinymasha  can you also show me how you got your answer?

destinymasha · Answer

you need to divide for both, then round off to the nearest cent

anonymous · Answer

You divide unit per price  =  10/$6.75 = $1.48  
                                          12/$7.25 =  $1.65
 Which means 10 units are cheaper

destinymasha · Answer

yup

anonymous · Answer

so would option 1 be the better buy??

destinymasha · Answer

which one seems like a better deal? I would say  12 candy bars for 7.25 , its only a dollar more than 10 candy bars, but has 2 extra :}

destinymasha · Answer

yes, it defines how much you would have to pay for each candy bar

destinymasha · Answer
