Question

Which is the better buy?

A. 12-quart container of disinfectant for $44.04

B. 2-gallon container of disinfectant for $23.04

Answer 1

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 quarts in a gallon. 12 / 4 = 3.

A contains 3 gallons. B contains 2 gallons. If you divide the price by the number of gallons, b will be cheaper.

Answer 2

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

A quart is approximately 1/4 of a gallon. Therefore 8 quarts is 2 gallons. 8/12 is 2/3

2/3 of $44.04 is $29.36. Therefore A is more expensive and B is the better buy.
