Group of answer choices
$19.25 for 11 candy bars

now do the others and pick the lowest cost
To determine which is the best buy among the given options, you need to calculate the price per candy bar for each option. The option with the lowest price per candy bar is considered the best buy.
To find the price per candy bar, divide the total cost by the number of candy bars:
Option 1: $19.25 / 11 = $1.75 per candy bar
Option 2: $15.39 / 9 = $1.71 per candy bar
Option 3: $17.30 / 10 = $1.73 per candy bar
Option 4: $22.62 / 13 = $1.74 per candy bar
After calculating, you can see that option 2, which offers 9 candy bars for $15.39, has the lowest price per candy bar, making it the best buy.
