Question

Sarah bought a 20oz can of tomato sauce for $25.40.What is the unit Price per ounce

Answer 1

If the can is 20oz and cost $25.40, the price per ounce would be:

$\frac{price}{ounce}$

price = $25.40
ounce = 20oz

so:

$\frac{25.40}{20}$

which comes out to be:

$1.27/oz

So each ounce of tomato sauce costs $1.27!

Answer 2

1.27 cents is the correct answer cause you have too divide 25.40 by 20 to get the right answer
