Answer
A

B
$160 for 20 lessons
C
$80 for 10 lessons
D
$120 for 20 lessons

Explanation

Divide each package’s cost by its number of lessons to find the cost per lesson: $90 ÷ 10 = $9, $160 ÷ 20 = $8, $80 ÷ 10 = $8, and $120 ÷ 20 = $6. The lowest cost per lesson is $6, so the $120 package for 20 lessons has the lowest ratio.
