Answer:

D) 36 bottles for $4 by 1.4¢ per bottle

Step-by-step explanation:

We calculate bottle per dollar for each option.

#A

Bottles/Dollar=[tex]\frac{24\ bottles}{\$3}=8[/tex] bottles/dollar

#Both B and C charges the same as A and will have bottle/dollar ration of 8:1

#D

[tex]=\frac{36}{4}\\\\=9[/tex]

Hence, D is the better buy  as it gives you 9bottles per $1 spent as compared to the 8 bottles per $1 spent as in the other 3 options.

Answer: The answer Is A hope this helped
