This actually isn't too hard to solve. Double the value of each option by removing the folding requirement from the 2-ply and halving the price of the 3-ply to get an even comparison of 2-ply (330 sheets for $0.70) and 3-ply (300 sheets for $0.60), then recognize that it's not worth adding 1/6 the price for 1/10th the sheets, to see that the 3-ply option is better.
Not folding 3-ply is asking for added expenses in the form of water and soap though... Push right through em
The ply count doesn't reflect thickness or softness at all. Of the 3-ply toilet papers I've used at home, some need three layers to not fall apart on the first wipe, others are fine with a single sheet.
