Question

15. Product A is an 8 oz. bottle of cough medication that sells for $1.36. Product B is a 16 oz. bottle of cough medication that costs $3.20. Which product has the lower unit price and how do you determine the answer

Answer 1

To determine unit price, you must find the price per 1 oz. So, divide 1.36 by 8 and divide 3.2 by 16.
1.36/8=.17
3.2/16=.2
Product A has the lower unit price because .17 is less than .2.
