Explanation / Answer

I feel like there is not enough information available to fully answer this question. First of all, we do not know how many packages each store can sell. If one orders too many, then many will get thrown away. If too little, then might not make a profit. So, I believe, with the information presented, obviously buy as many as possible with the lowest price (26 cents per package for 2300 packages)
