The same Honey is sold in two different size jars. Large jar= 540g for £4.10 Small jar= 360g for £2.81. By considering the amount of honey per penny, work out which jar is the best value for money. Working must be shown.

From our calculations the large jar is the best value for money because a penny buys more honey

Step-by-step explanation:

We will determine which has the best value for money using the quantity a pound can purchase.  

firstly for the large jar.

if £4.10 will purchase 540g of honey then,

   £1.00 will purchase xg

cross multiplying to find x will have

Hence for the large jar a penny would buy 131.7g of honey

secondly for the small jar

if £2.81 will purchase 360g of honey then,

   £1.00 will purchase xg

cross multiplying to find x will have

Hence for the small jar a penny would buy 128.1g of honey
