Answer:

Explanation:

suppose you're in the grocery and are trying to decide which brand of beans you want to purchase. One is $0.87 for 13 oz and the other is $1.29 for 15 oz. By finding the unit rate for each, you'll have something easily compared.

$0.87

---------- = $0.07 / oz

13 oz

$1.29

--------- = $0.86 / oz

15 oz

The first brand is cheaper than the second brand.
