The second deal, 30 egg carton for $5, is better.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find how many eggs are in 3 dozen:

Dozen = 12    12 x 3 = 36

2. Find the value of 1 egg for each deal:

Deal 1: 36 eggs = $9

Divide 9 by 36, to find how much is 1 egg is:

9/36 = 0.25

Hence, in the first deal the value of 1 egg is 0.25 cents.

Deal 2: 30 eggs = $5

Divide 5 by 30, to find how much is 1 egg is:

5/30 = 0.16666666666 or 0.17

Hence, in the second deal the value of 1 egg is 0.17 cents.

3. Now we compare the two egg values:

Deal 1 value: 0.25 per egg

Deal 2 value: 0.17 per egg

If we look at the two values, the value for the second deals egg is cheaper than the value of the first deals egg, making the second deal better.
