Which option makes the most financial sense? 10 individual chicken breasts at $3 each
5 two-packs of chicken breasts at $5 each
a 12-pack bag of chicken at $20
a 20-pack bag of chicken at $35
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
Given that the number of people needed to serve is five and the plan is for each of them to have two pieces of chicken.
Hence
For choice A:
Total cost = 10*3 = $30
Number of pieces = 10
For choice B:
Total cost = 5*5 = $25
Number of pieces = 10
For choice C:
Total cost = $20
Number of pieces = 12
For choice D:
Total cost = $35
Number of pieces = 20
Therefore, considering the above choices, the best choice to choose is option C.
This is because it has the lowest cost and the number of pieces satisfies them and yet remains.
