The table shows the price per gram of three items. Which of the following gives the items in order from least price per gram to greatest price per gram?

A. A, B, C
B. B, A, C
C. B, C, A
D. C, B, A



Answer :

To determine the correct order of the items from the least price per gram to the greatest price per gram, we start by comparing the given prices:

- Item A price per gram: \[tex]$0.06 - Item B price per gram: \$[/tex]0.054
- Item C price per gram: \[tex]$0.30 First, we identify the item with the least price per gram: - Item B: \$[/tex]0.054

Next, we compare the remaining items to identify the one with the next higher price:
- Item A: \[tex]$0.06 (Since \$[/tex]0.06 is greater than \[tex]$0.054 but less than \$[/tex]0.30)

Finally, the item with the highest price per gram:
- Item C: \$0.30

Thus, the order of items from the least price per gram to the greatest price per gram is:

[tex]\[ B, A, C \][/tex]

So, the correct answer is:

[tex]\[ \boxed{B, A, C} \][/tex]
