    1.75 pounds costing 10.85 is better buy as it is cheaper at 6.2 per pound

    Step-by-step explanation:

    1.37 pounds cost 9.59

    that is 1 pound = 9.59/1.37

    = 7

    for 1.75 pounds costing 10.85

    1 pounds = 10.85/1.75

    = 6.2

    Therefore at this cost prices, 1.7 pounds costing 10.85 is better as it is cheaper

    The second one which is $10.85 for 1.75 pound is better to buy because the cost per pound of the second one is less than the cost per pound of the first one.
