Respuesta :

Answer: The answer is B $3.36 per gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

B; $3.30

Step-by-step explanation:

Since $43.75 is the cost of 12 gallon tanks, you want to multiply $3.30 by 12 to compare them when they each have the same amount of gallon tanks. This gets us to $39.60 which makes B the better deal.

However, the question asks for the unit price of one gallon tank, so you would want to put $3.30.
