Answer 1

Answer:

The two-liter bottle of soda has a unit price of $0.028/ounce.  

The case of twelve 12 ounces has a unit price of $0.021/ounce.

The case of twelve 12 ounce can is the better bargain.

Step-by-step explanation:

A two-liter bottle of soda i.e. 67.6 ounces cost $1.89.

So, the unit price (price/ounces) of this type of soda is $\frac{1.89}{67.6} = 0.028$ dollars per ounce.

Again, a case of twelve 12 ounce cans of the same soda costs $2.99.

So, the unit price (price/ounces) of this type of soda is $\frac{2.99}{12 \times 12} = 0.021$ dollars per ounce.

Therefore, the case of twelve 12 ounce can is the better bargain. (Answer)
