Answer:

Unit Price for Brand A: $0.31 per Pencil.

Unit Price for Brand B: $0.35 per Pencil.

Brand A is the better buy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 7.49 by 24 to get 0.312 and round down to 0.31.

Divide 9.97 by 28 to get 0.356 and round down to 0.35 (0.36 is too much making the price $10.08)

Compare 0.31 and 0.35. (0.31 < 0.35)
