Question

9. A grocery store sells two sizes of brown sugar.
• A 500-g bag costs $2.20.
• A 2-kg bag costs $5.65.
Which bag is the better buy? How do you know?​

Answer 1

2-kg bag because your getting more

Answer 2

Bag A: $rate=\frac{220cents}{500g} =44cents/g$

Bag B:$rate=\frac{565cents}{2,000g} =.28cents/g$

The bag of two kilograms is the better buy because it has a better unit rate and you get more for less.

Hope this helps, now you know the answer and how to do it. HAVE A BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY! As well as a great rest of Black History Month! :-)
