11.3-7.2f = -3.82
-11.3 -11.30
_____________
-7.2f = -15.12
____ _____
-7.2 -7.2
f = 2.1
This sets up as a very commonly used proportion.
90 oz / 18.95 = 1 oz / x Cross multiply
90 x = 18.95 Divide by 90
x = 18.95 / 90
x = 0.21 dollars or 21 cents.
So each ounce of shampoo costs 0.21 dollars or 21 cents.
This is a very handy way to check best deals. Stores have trained us for years to believe that the more we buy of a brand, the better the price. It isn't always true. Sometimes buying the smaller quantity is the better deal. There is only one way to be sure and that's to do a proportion like this one.
Try this is an example. The same company makes a smaller container of shampoo of 45 oz for 9.15. How much is 1 oz and which is the better deal? You should get 0.20333 dollars so this is marginally (just) the better deal.
Minus 3 from the 3 and the 18
Note that 60 minutes is 1 standard deviation away from the mean and from recalling the 68-95-99.7 rule, the area that will remain is (100 - 68) = 32%. However, we only want the leftmost portion of this area, so the answer is 32%/2 = 16%.
