Solution Steps

To determine which of the two given prices is the better deal, we need to calculate the price per ounce for each bottle and compare them. The bottle with the lower price per ounce is the better deal.

Step 1: Calculate the price per ounce for the 20-ounce bottle

The price of the 20-ounce bottle is \$15.20. To find the price per ounce, we divide the total price by the number of ounces: \[ \text{Price per ounce for 20-ounce bottle} = \frac{15.20}{20} = 0.76 \]

Step 2: Calculate the price per ounce for the 15-ounce bottle

The price of the 15-ounce bottle is \$11.10. To find the price per ounce, we divide the total price by the number of ounces: \[ \text{Price per ounce for 15-ounce bottle} = \frac{11.10}{15} = 0.74 \]

Step 3: Compare the price per ounce of both bottles

We compare the price per ounce of the 20-ounce bottle (\$0.76) and the 15-ounce bottle (\$0.74). Since \(0.74 < 0.76\), the 15-ounce bottle is the better deal.

Final Answer

\(\boxed{\text{15-ounce bottle for \$11.10}}\)
