Q. Sasha's mom is ordering food trays for Sasha's elementary school graduation party. Banquet Brothers sells a tray with 4848 servings of pasta for 6060 $\$. Cookin' Catering sells a tray with 3030 servings of pasta for 7272 $\$. Which company has the better deal?\newlineChoices:\newline(A)Banquet Brothers\newline(B)Cookin' Catering
  1. Calculate Price per Serving: Calculate the price per serving for Banquet Brothers.\newlinePrice per serving = Total price / Number of servings\newlinePrice per serving = \frac{60 \$\$\)}{\(48\) \text{ servings}}\newlinePrice per serving = 1.25$$1.25 \$\$\) per serving
  2. Compare Prices: Calculate the price per serving for Cookin' Catering.\newlinePrice per serving = Total price / Number of servings\newlinePrice per serving = \frac{72 \$\$\)}{\(30\) \text{ servings}}\newlinePrice per serving = 2.4$$2.4 \$\$\) per serving
  3. Choose Better Deal: Compare the price per serving of both companies.\newlineBanquet Brothers = \(1\).\(25\) (\$) per serving\(\newline\)Cookin' Catering = 22.44 (\$) per serving\(\newline\)Since \(1.25 (\$) < 2.4 (\$)\), Banquet Brothers offers the better deal per serving.
