Respuesta :

better deal normlly means the rate that cost less
rate=cost/amount

9=cost and 3/4 bushel = amount for one store
3/4=0.75
9/0.75=12/1 aka $12/1bushel

9 =cost and 2/3 bushel =amount for another
2/3=about 0.66666
9/0.66666=13.5/1 aka $13.5/1 bushell

compare
12 dollars per bushe vs 13.5 dollar per bushel
12 is cheaper

therefor $9 For 3/4 bushel is better deal
