Answer:

Costco

Step-by-step explanation:

We find the cost per egg for each of the three stores.

Costco:

$9.35/(60 eggs) = $0.15583/egg

Safeway:

$4.79/(12 eggs) = $0.39917/egg

Trader Joe's:

$6.18/(18 eggs) = $0.34333/egg

The best deal is Costco.

Answer:

Costco

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{60}{9.35}: \frac{1}{y}[/tex]

60 × y = 1 × 9.35

60y = 9.35

60y ÷ 60 = 9.35 ÷ 60

[tex]y=\frac{187}{1200}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{12}{4.79}: \frac{1}{y}[/tex]

12 × y = 1 × 4.79

12y = 4.79

12y ÷ 12 = 4.79 ÷ 12

[tex]y=\frac{479}{1200}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{18}{6.18}: \frac{1}{y}[/tex]

18 × y = 1 × 6.18

18y = 6.18

18y ÷ 18 = 6.18 ÷ 18

[tex]y=\frac{103}{300}=\frac{412}{1200}[/tex]
