Lee is comparing brands of juice. Brand A
costs $4.95 for 3 bottles and each bottle
contains 0.95 liter. Brand B costs $5.19
for 5 bottles and each bottle contains
0.55 liter. Which has more juice: 3 bottles
of Brand A or 5 bottles of Brand B?​

Respuesta :

Answer: 3 bottles of brand A

Explanation:

The pricing/cost information is not used in this problem. All we care about is the number of bottles, and how much each bottle can hold.

Brand A bottles hold 0.95 liters each. We bought 3 of these bottles, so 3*0.95 = 2.85 liters in total are purchased.

Brand B bottles hold 0.55 liters each. Buying 5 of them leads to 5*0.55 = 2.75 liters in total.

Going with the brand A option leads to more juice by 0.10 liters (subtract 2.85 and 2.75)
