Katrina is fostering a kitten and needs to purchase cat litter. Clean Cats costs $10 for a 25-pound bag, and Forever Fresh costs $18 for a 40-pound bag. What is the cost per pound of the better deal?(1 point)
The better deal costs $/pound.

GPT 3.5 · Answer

To find the cost per pound, we need to divide the total cost by the total weight.

For Clean Cats: $10 ÷ 25 pounds = $0.40/pound
For Forever Fresh: $18 ÷ 40 pounds = $0.45/pound

Therefore, the cost per pound of the better deal is $0.40.
