Answer:

  • $324 for 72 pints
  • $306 for 36 quarts
  • larger size is better deal

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of 72 pints is 72 times the cost of 1 pint:

  72 × $4.50 = $324.00 . . . cost of 72 pints

The cost of 36 quarts is 36 times the cost of 1 quart:

  36 × $8.50 = $306.00 . . . cost of 36 quarts

__

The price for quart containers is lower, so the larger size is the better deal.
