Answer:
First bottle:
unit price .... £55/80 ml = 68.75 cents/ml
2nd bottle:
50 ml at £45 plus 50 ml at £22.50
or 100 ml for £67.50
unit price = £67.50/100 = 67.50 cents/ml
so what do you think?

For the first bottle:
£55÷80= 0.6875
For the second bottle(s):
Since we're working out the price for two bottles, add the millilitres together. So:
50ml + 50ml = 100ml
Then add the prices together, considering the special offer.
The first bottle is at £45. The second is half price so, £45÷2= £22.50
Add the two together: £45 + £22.50= £67.50
Continue as normal, with the price divided by the amount:
£67.50÷100= 0.675
Now, the price of the first bottle per ml was 0.6875. The price for the second bottles was 0.675 altogether. The smaller number is the cheapest price, meaning it is the best buy. 0.675 is smaller than 0.6875
So, the two 50ml bottles are the better buy.
(The answer Reiny gave was correct but I thought it would be better to give reasons for each step to avoid confusion)
