ok so what is 10/6.75?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that is how much 1 candy bar costs
OpenStudy (perl):
compare unit rates
6.75 / 10
and
7.25 / 12
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then you do 12/7.25
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then compare them and you will figure out the better buy

I don't get it.
OpenStudy (perl):
make sure the units are correct
you want
dollars / item
OpenStudy (briellshaw):
I would think 12 candy bars for $7.25 because it a cheap offer that has more usually 12 candy bars is over $10.00
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so 10/6.75=1.49
OpenStudy (perl):
i cant use the draw button :/
