    Step-by-step explanation:

    Factors of 24 are 1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24

    Since we are looking for prices as well as quantity, these numbers must go in pairs.

    1*24 = option 1

    2*12 = option 2

    3*8 = option 3

    4*6 = option 4

    Any of the above 4 pairs can suit the figures. They can even be reversed except option 1 ($1 and 24 bags but not $24 and 1 bag because the question says bags not bag).
