Who got the better deal? Complete the paragraph to explain.
Alexa’s bottle contains about _____ mL of the active ingredient per dollar spent. Harold’s bottle contains about _____ mL of the active ingredient per dollar spent. So _____ got the better deal.
To complete the paragraph and determine who got the better deal, we need to know the amount of active ingredient in each bottle and their prices.
Let’s say Alexa’s bottle costs $10 and contains 50 mL of the active ingredient. Thus, her cost per mL is:
50 mL / $10 = 5 mL per dollar.
Now, if Harold’s bottle costs $8 and contains 32 mL of the active ingredient, his cost per mL is:
32 mL / $8 = 4 mL per dollar.
So the complete paragraph would be:
Alexa’s bottle contains about 5 mL of the active ingredient per dollar spent. Harold’s bottle contains about 4 mL of the active ingredient per dollar spent. So Alexa got the better deal.
The reasoning is that Alexa receives more of the active ingredient per dollar compared to Harold. If you have different values for the amounts and prices, you can substitute them in to find the correct comparison! If you need more assistance or specific numbers, feel free to ask!
