c) where should ben buy the orange juice if he wants the best deal? explain.

X - the price per oz in the grocery store
y - the price per oz in the wholesale club

a) The answer is $0.031 per oz
He can buy 64 fl oz at the grocery store for $2.00:
64x = 2
x = 2 / 64
x = $0.031

b) The answer is $0.029 per oz
He can buy 256 fl oz at the wholesale club for $7.50:
256y = 7.50
x = 7.50 / 256 
x = $0.029

c) The answer is wholesale club

Let's calculate where you can get more oz for $1 using the proportion.
Grocery store:
1 oz for $0.031
x oz for $1
1 : 0.031 = x : 1
x = 1 * 1 : 0.031
x = 32.26 oz

Wholesale club:
1 oz for $0.029
x oz for $1
1 : 0.029 = x : 1
x = 1 * 1 : 0.029
x = 34.48 oz

34.48 oz > 32.26 oz, so he should buy at the wholesale club
