  1. Answer:
    5 apples for 3.95 is the better deal
    Step-by-step explanation:
    If you divide 7 by 5.46 you should get roughly 1.28, so $1.28 per apple
    and if you divide 5 by 3.95 you should get roughly 1.26, meaning $1.26 per apple. You can verify this by multiplying 1.26 by 5 and 1.28 by 7
