Question

A supermarket sells 500g pots of yogurt. There is a special offer on yogurt: Buy 2 pots and get a
third one free. A week later, the price of a single pot of yogurt is still the same, but the offer changes
to: Buy a pot and get the second one for half price. Which out of the two is a better discount offer for
the customer?
Option 1
Option 2
Both
None of these​

Answer 1

Answer:

the answer will be both because both the situations brings the same amount...but I guiss if you need the yogurt quickly then you can buy the one now rather than later

because the amount is same

Answer 2

Answer:

option 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First offer is better since if P = price of 500g of yoghurt,

1st offer gives 1500g for 2P

2nd offer gives 1000g for 1.5P ie, 1500g for 2.25P

Alternatively,

1st offer of 3 pots for 2P means 1 pot costs 2/3P

2nd offer 2pots for 3/2P means 1 pot for 3/4 P

2/3 < 3/4, so first offer is better.
