Answer:

Comparing both solution we found that Second  transaction made by Dan is better deal. because its unit price is lesser than the First transaction unit price made by him. ([tex]\$2.039 <\$2.083[/tex]).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Dan paid $12.67 for a 6.08 kg bag of Dog food.

Again He paid $12.95 for a 6.35 kg bag of Dog food.

From the question,

                            Unit Price of each bag per kg = [tex]\frac{12.67}{6.08}[/tex]

                                                                               = [tex]\$2.083[/tex].

Few weeks later,

 He paid $12.95 for a 6.35 kg of Dog food.

So,

                       New unit price of each bag per kg = [tex]\frac{12.95}{6.35}[/tex]

                                                                                 = [tex]\$2.039[/tex]

Here,

Comparing both solution we found that Second  transaction made by Dan is better deal. because its unit price is lesser than the First transaction unit price made by him. ([tex]\$2.039 <\$2.083[/tex]).
