Question

Brand A: 240 mg sodium for 1/3 pickle or brand B: 325 mg sodium for 1/2 pickle

Brand A: 240 mg sodium for 1/3 pickle or brand B: 325 mg sodium for 1/2 pickle

240mg/(1/3 pickle) = (240 mg x 3)/1 pickle = 720 mg/ pickle

325 mg/ (1/2 pickle) = (325 mg x 2)/1 pickle = 650 mg/pickle is lower
