Explanation / Answer

The total utility of maximised when marginal utility per dollar from a good is equal to another good. This is because consumers fixes his/her budget and allocate the quantity of each good such that their marginal utility is equal. But is this doesn't happen and the person starts consuming one more than the other than the marginal utility of one being more consumed would eventually start to decrease due to the law of DIMINISHING MARGINAL UTILITY, hence the total utility won't be maximised.

Ideally,  

Marginal utility of A/ price of good A = marginal utility of good B/ price of good B.
