Answer:

$0.16 per ounce

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello

I think I can help you with this.

the unit rate is the price that you pay for a unit of product, in this case the unit product is the once.

it can be calculated by

$Unit\ rate = \frac{total\ price\ paid}{number\ of\ products} \\$

Step 1

Let

total price paid=$5.79

number of products=36 ounces

Step 2

put the values into the equation

$Unit\ rate = \frac{total\ price\ paid}{number\ of\ products}\\Unit\ rate = \frac{5.79}{36}\\Unit\ rate =0.16$

it means the unit rate is $0.16 per ounce

Have a fantastic day

If you want to find how much this cereal costs per ounce, you divide the cost by the number of ounces. 5.79 divided by 36 equals about sixteen cents per ounce.

Ms. Hayes has 1/2 liter of juice. She distributes it equally to 6 students in her tutoring group.

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

(a). $\frac{1}{12}$

(b). 2 liters juice.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Ms. Hayes has 1/2 liter of juice. She distributes it equally to 6 students in her tutoring group.

(a). To amount the amount of juice needed for each student, we will divide 1/2 liter by 6 as:

$\text{Amount of juice that each student will get}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{6}$

Using property $\frac{\frac{a}{b}}{c}=\frac{a}{b\cdot c}$ , we will get:

$\text{Amount of juice that each student will get}=\frac{1}{2\cdot6}$

$\text{Amount of juice that each student will get}=\frac{1}{12}$

Therefore, each student will get $\frac{1}{12}$ liter of juice.

(b). To find the amount needed for 24 students each having $\frac{1}{12}$ liter of juice, we will multiply 24 by $\frac{1}{12}$ .

$\text{Amount of juice needed for 24 students}=24\times \frac{1}{12}$

$\text{Amount of juice needed for 24 students}=2\times 1$

$\text{Amount of juice needed for 24 students}=2$

Therefore, Ms. Hayes needs 2 liters of juice.
