Question 28330: Please help me with this problem. For some reason I can't get the right answers for price comparison.
Del Monte asparagus spears sell for $1.39 for 8oz, and Green Giant asparagus spears cost $1.99 for 12 oz. Which is the better buy, and by how much, rounded to the nearest tenth of a cent.
I divided the price by the ounces and came up with .17 cents for both. The answer is the Green Giant brand becuase it is .8 cents cheaper. ??????
Thanks, in advance, for the help!! :) Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
