Answer:

The Jar of peanut butter

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to do this is to calculate price per ounce of each unit.

We'll assign the 12 ounce jar to the variable s and the bulk to the variable b.

First create an equation to find the values of each product per ounce.

Since the 12 ounce jar(s) sells for 3.96 we can say it is 3.96 for every 12 ounces, or s = 3.96/12oz.

Simplify this equation and you get s = 0.33 per ounce.

For b we need to convert pounds to ounces.

There are 16 ounces per pound so the equation we get is:

b = 5.50/16oz

Simplified we get:

b =  about 0.34/oz

The smaller jar has a rate of $0.33/oz

The bulk has a rate of $0.34/oz

This means the answer is b. The jar of peanut butter has a cheaper unit rate.

sergeinik [125]
The answer is 28.

1/4 of 16= 4
3/4 of 16= 12
so Carmen takes 3/4 more time of the trip to the market when she return s home.
