Answer:
Explanation:
The price of the 8 ounce box is $2.48, we will determine the price per ounce for the 8 ounce box
If 8 ounce = $2.48
1 ounce will be 2.48/8 = $0.31
The price of the 14 ounce box is $3.36
we will also determine the price per ounce for the 14 ounce box
If 14 ounce = $3.36
1 ounce will be 3.36/14 = $0.24
To determine how much greater is the cost per ounce of cereal in the 8 ounce box than in the 14 ounce box, we will subtract the unit cost of the 14 ounce box from the 8 ounce box. It becomes
$0.31 - $0.24= $0.07
