A store sells two sizes of bottled water. Size A is 32 fluid ounces (f1 oz) for $2.56 and Size X is $4.80 for
48 fluid ounces. Which is the better buy? Justify your answer.


Sagot :

#size A

  • 32fluid ounces=$2.56

1 fluid ounce:-

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{2.56}{32}=0.08[/tex]

#Size X

  • 48 fluid ounces=4.80$

1 fluid ounce

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{4.80}{48}=0.1[/tex]

We can see

0.08<0.1

  • So Size X is better to buy
