To determine which option is a better buy, we need to calculate the unit price for each option. The unit price is the cost of one sheet.
For the first option, we have 100 sheets for $0.99. To calculate the unit price, divide the total cost by the number of sheets: $0.99 / 100 sheets = $0.0099 per sheet.
For the second option, we have 500 sheets for $4.29. To calculate the unit price, divide the total cost by the number of sheets: $4.29 / 500 sheets = $0.00858 per sheet.
Comparing the unit prices, we can see that the second option has a lower unit price ($0.00858 per sheet) compared to the first option ($0.0099 per sheet). Therefore, the second option, with 500 sheets for $4.29, is the better buy as it gives you a lower cost per sheet.
