Answer:

The bag of red grapes costs more.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can do proportions.

A supermarket has bags of red grapes for 22.96 for 7 bags:

[tex] \frac{22.96 \: dollars}{7 \: bags} = \frac{x}{1 \: bag} \\ \frac{7x}{7 } = \frac{22.96}{7} \\ x = 3.28[/tex]

For one bag of red grapes, its costs $3.28.

They also had bags of green grapes priced 9.60 for 3 bags:

[tex] \frac{9.60 \: dollars}{3 \: bags} = \frac{x}{1} \\ \frac{3x}{3} = \frac{9.60}{3} \\ x = 3.2 \: \: \: - > 3.20[/tex]

One bag of green grapes costs $3.20.

The bag of red grapes costs more.
