Sasha's mom is ordering food trays for Sasha's elementary school graduation party. Banquet Brothers sell a tray with 48 servings of pasta for $60. Cookin' Catering sells a tray with 30 servings of pasta for $72. Which company has the better deal?

Respuesta :

Answer: Banquet Brothers has better deal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Banquet Brothers sell a tray with 48 servings of pasta for $60.

Cost per serving = [tex]\$\dfrac{60}{48}=\$\dfrac{5}{4}=\$\ 1.25[/tex]

Cookin' Catering sells a tray with 30 servings of pasta for $72.

Cost per serving = [tex]\$\dfrac{72}{30}=\$\ 2.4[/tex]

Since, Cost per serving in Banquet Brothers < Cost per serving in Cookin' Catering

So, Banquet Brothers has better deal.
