A preview of the wording. The answer options and full explanations appear once you begin.

Before you begin, remember
- For best value, work out the cost of one unit for each option and compare those. Comparing packet prices directly is what the question is hoping you will do.
- Watch the difference between a ratio and a fraction: in a ratio of 3:5, the first share is three eighths of the whole, not three fifths.
