To determine which option is the better buy, we can calculate the price per bouncy ball for each pack.

1. **4-pack for $1.24**:
\[
\text{Price per bouncy ball} = \frac{1.24}{4} = 0.31
\]

2. **5-pack for $1.70**:
\[
\text{Price per bouncy ball} = \frac{1.70}{5} = 0.34
\]

Now we compare the price per bouncy ball:

- The 4-pack costs $0.31 per ball.
- The 5-pack costs $0.34 per ball.

Since $0.31 is less than $0.34, the **4-pack for $1.24** is the better buy.
