A chef needs 60 oz of hot pepper sauce.

Which container size represents the better buy?

the best buy would be 2 cans of 30 ounces for $40.80

Step-by-step explanation:

why well first you take your amount of ounces needed so 60 then you take every option and divide it and after you divide you multiply by the price of every can so 60/2 is 30 so that means you have to get 30 cans of 2 oz, the you take 30 and multiply by the price so essentially every 2 oz can is $1.99 so take that into account and you do 30 cans x 1.99 = $59.70 so for 30 cans of 2 oz it will be $59.70 the you do the same for the rest so 60/5=12 then 12x3.95= $47.40, 60/12= 5 so 5x8.76= $43.80 and lastly 60/30=2 so 2x 20.40= $40.80 so now you know which one costs less
