Answer:

OXY=18

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of AABC to AAXY is 4:3 so the lengths will be in that ratio too. The ratio of BC:XY is 4:3. BC is 24 so 24:XY is 4:3. You need to divide 24 by 6 to get 4 so multiply 3 by 6 to get the answer 18.

allsm [11]

To solve this is you have to find the price per ounce for each item by simply dividing the price by the ounces.

For the oat cereal divide $3.90 by 15

3.90/15

.26 per ounce

For the rice cereal divide $3.30 by 11

3.30/11

.30 per ounce

The oat cereal costs less per ounce since it is only .26 per ounce whereas the rice cereal is .30 per ounce.

Hope this helps!
