The 8 in context means that the Johnsons bought 8 meals in total (2 burger meals + 6 hot dog meals).
The 6 in context means that the Wilsons bought 6 meals in total (5 burger meals + 1 hot dog meal).
To determine who got the better deal, we need to compare the total cost per meal for each family.
The Johnsons and the Wilsons went to the Burger Barn for dinner. The Johnsons bought 2 burger meals and 5 hot dog meals for $46. The Wilsons bought 5 burger meals and 2 hot dog meals for $52.

but who has the better deal?
Apologies for the confusion. Based on the calculations, the Johnsons got the better deal. They paid a lower cost per meal compared to the Wilsons, with a cost of $5.75 per meal compared to $8.67 per meal for the Wilsons.
