A 2-pound can of coffee sells for $3.38, and a 5-pound can of the same brand of coffee sells for $8.50. Which is the better buy?

Step-by-step explanation:

Two pounds

2 pounds of coffee sells for $3.38

1 pound of coffee sells for 3.38 / 2 = $1.69

Five Pounds

5 pounds of the same coffee sells for $8.50

1 pound of the same coffee sells for $8.50 /5 = 1.70

By a very narrow margin, the 2 pounds of coffee is the better buy.

You would rather pay 1.69 for a pound of something, when your only other choice is 1.70 for the same thing.
