Example:
You’re shopping for refreshments for a party. The grocery store is having a sale on soda. An 8-pack of soda cans costs $2.49, 6-pack costs $2.29, and a 2 L bottle of soda costs $1.19. You’d like to get either the 6-pack or the 8-pack because it’s easy to throw cans in a cooler with ice. But is buying either pack of soda cans more economical than buying the 2 L bottle?


To see which is the best deal, you need to find the unit price. This is a two-step process. First, you need to divide the total cost in each deal by the number of containers for that item. That will give you the cost per container. In this case, you will need to find the cost for each can in a 8 or 6-pack and the cost for a 2-liter bottle. Then you divide the cost per container by the number of ounces in the container. That will give you the unit rate.

1st you Total Cost Divided Number of Units, then Divide your answer by Number of Oz, to get the final answer!

M&MS are sold in many different sizes and for many different prices. A party sized bag is sold at $8.98 for 42 oz. A fun size bag is sold at $3.48 for 10.57 oz.

Answer 1

so what i'm gonna do is find out how to get about 42 oz by multiplying 10.57,

10.57 x 4 is the closest i got with 10.57 x 4 = 42.28

then i multiplyed 3.48 by 4 to see the price of 4 bags

which was 13.92

so the 42 oz one has the best deal

hope this helps!
