Shawna needs to buy apples to bake pies for the fair. She needs 13 pounds of apples. At one market, she finds apples selling for $1.89 a pound. At another market she finds a 15-pound bag of apples for $26.99.
Which market has the better deal?

The market that sells a 15-pound bag of apples for $26.99.

Step-by-step explanation:

because in the first market 1 pound of apple equals $1.89, we must multiply it times 15 if we need 15 pounds which are $28.35 ($1.89 x 15), but in the second market, 15 pound of apples equals $26.99, compared to the first market the second market has a lesser price so we get to save $1.36 if we buy in the second market rather than buying apples in the first market.

your answer would be 12
