Difficulty—

A certain bakery sells wheat bread in 8-ounce loaves and all loaves of the same size sell for the same price per loaf regardless of the number of loaves purchased. What is the price of a 12-ounce loaf of wheat bread in this bakery?

(1) The price of two 8-ounce loaves of this bread is $1.80.
(2) The pice of one 8-ounce loaf and 12-ounce loaf of this bread is $2.00

The OA is C.

Let the price of 8-ounce loaf=X
The price of 12-ounce loaf=y

(1) 2x=1.8
x=$0.9
no info on y, not sufficient.

(2) x+y=2
x&y could be anything, not sufficient.

Combining we get x=$0.9
thus y=$1.1
Sufficient.

Hence, the correct answer is C.

Has anyone another strategic approach to solve this PS question? Regards!
