Answer:
7-pound bag of barley for $6.72 is a better buy.
Step-by-step explanation:
7-pound bag of barley for $6.72
6.72 : 7 = 0.96
check your work: 0.96 x 7 = 6.72
so for the first offer you will be paying $0.96 per pound
312-ounce bag of barley for $28.08
1 pound = 16 ounces
312 ounces = 19.5 pounds
28.08 : 19.5 = 1.44
for the second offer you will be paying $1.44 per pound of barley. 7-pound bag of barley for $6.72 is a better buy because you will be less for each pound.
hope this helps!
