32 Oz of brown rice -> 79 * 2 = $1.58

The brown rice is better to buy because it is less than $3.49.

Please make this answer the brainiest!

Answer:

Brown rice

Step-by-step explanation:

We must determined how much you pay per oz. for each type of rice to determine the best buy.

For brown rice:

\(79/16=4.93\)

You pay approximately 5 cent per oz. of brown rice.

For white rice:

\(3.49/32=0.109=0.11\)

You pay 11 cents per oz. of white rice.

White rice is twice the price of brown rice per oz.

∴ brown rice
