Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so, to find this, remember- to find the true price of an item, remember the equation (PRICE DIVIDED BY QUANTITY), this will give you true price. So, for the individual, its $3.99 for one pound. In bulk, to find the true price, do price divided by quantity. $17.45/5= 3.45. So thats the better deal. Anyways, to find out how much cheaper it is, subtract 3.45 from 3.99. The answer is .54, however, since you need to round to the nearest tenth place, the answer would be .50
