Answer:

Brand B.

Step-by-step explanation: Jacob should pick Brand B because he will save money. This is because if he buys 8 ounces 6 times, he will have to pay about $17.94, but if he buys 16 ounces 3 times, he will only spend $14.97.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

unit rate = cost/weight

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the unit rate, divide the cost by the weight of each brand.

The lower unit rate represents a lower price, so that is the one you choose.
