Answer 1

Answer:

£0.465. It is a better value.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a pack of 6 batteries costs £2.79, price of a battery can be calculated as shown;

6batteries = £2.79

1 battery = x

x = cost of a battery

6x = £2.79

x = £2.79/6

x = £0.465

Price per battery will be £0.465. This price is a better value since the price is lesser than the cost of the 6batteries (£2.79) in a pack.
