Answer:

The correct unit price is $1.17 per pair of gloves. The error is she used number of dozens so, firstly convert it to number of pairs of gloves then divide.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given 4 dozen pairs of gloves for $56.16.

So, unit price = Divide the price by number of pairs of gloves.

And 1 dozen =12

So 4 dozen =4*12=48 pairs of gloves

So, to find unit rate divide 56.16  by 48.

Unit price =\frac{56.16}{48}= $1.17

So, the error is she didn't convert the dozen to units.

That made mistake in finding unit price.
