Lilian Carey · Answer 1

Divide the price by the quantity to see what's a better deal.

4.25 / 5 = 0.85

So, for each apple it costs 85 cents.

6.56 / 8 = 0.82

So, for each apple it costs 82 cents.

So, the $6.56 for 8 pounds of apples is the better deal.

Clayton · Answer 2

5 divided by 4.25=1.17 then 8 divided by 6.56 1.21 so 4.25 is cheaper. Since 1.17 is cheaper then 1.21
