Is this your maths homework? If it's not, then I'll have a go, but if it is, then you ought to be doing it yourself!
100 ml is 70p in small
100 ml in 199 divided by 3 in medium = 66p
100 ml is 349 divided by 5 in large = 69p so medium is best value

haha well yeah, but ive already done it, so i wanted to see if anyone else could do it, and if i got the same answer :)
The Large size is the best value for money ! 5x79p=3.95. A saving of 46p !
Neat idea amy! Grasscarp's already done it tho so I won't (and showed the workings!)
Redman: Grasscarp is right - medium is the best value, as shown!
