As the room is a rectangle, to find the area you simply multiply the length and width together.
L x W = A
As in the question stated you have the area and length:
12.5 x W = 131
To find the width you can simply divide the area by the length:
131 ÷ 12.5 = 10.48 ≅ 10.5 = 10

One way to compare is to find the price per gallon.
$24 for 4 gallons = 24÷4 = $6 per gallon
8 pack of 1 qt bottle give you 2 gallons (4qts= 1 gallon) So you get 2 gallons for $16
$16 ÷ 2 = $8.00 per gallon. Sweet and Sour has the higher unit price.
Even if we compare the price per quart we will get the same answer as to who is selling it at the higher unit price.
4gal for $24 = 16 quarts for $24 ( 1 gallon = 4 qts)
$24 ÷ 16 = $1.50 each (1
)
vs.
8 quarts for $16 $16 ÷ 8 = $2.00 per qt. Sweet and sour still has the higher unit price
