Shopping!

We can use unit price for a variety of products you buy every day. Suppose we are buying soda, but we have different options on how much we can pay. Let's figure out the unit rate for the following options.

**Options:**

A) 12-12oz cans of soda for $4.39
Unit Price per ounce: [Unitrate1]/oz

B) 6-16oz bottles of soda for $2.99
Unit Price per ounce: [Unitrate2]/oz

C) 1-20oz bottle of soda for $1.50
Unit Price per ounce: [Unitrate3]/oz

Which option is the best price per ounce? [Unitrate4]

Answer :

the best option is A

A: $4.39 for 144 ounces of soda = $0.0305 = 4.39/144

B: $2.99 for 96 ounces of soda = $0.0311 = 2.99/96

C: $1.50 for 20 ounces of soda = $0.075 = 1.50/20

A is best answer because that one has the lowest unit rate per ounce of soda.
