Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Price-club sells a 12-ounce package of spaghetti noodles for $3.44.
By unitary method ,
The unit price per ounce at Price-Club = (Price of 12-ounce package of spaghetti noodles ) ÷ 12

Hence, the unit price per ounce at Price-Club =$0.29
Shop Mart sells a 2-pound box of spaghetti noodles for $8.35.
Since 1 pound = 16 ounces
⇒ 2 pounds = 2 x 16 ounces = 32 ounces (By unitary method)
i.e. Shop Mart sells a 32-ounces box of spaghetti noodles for $8.35.
The unit price per ounce at Shop Mart = (Price of 32-ounce package of spaghetti noodles ) ÷ 32
= $8.35÷ 32= $0.2609375≈ $0.26
