Question

Sara bought a 16-ounce jar of strawberry jam for $ 3.20. what is the unit price?

Could anyone help me with this problem plz

Answer 1

The unit price would be $0.20 because when you divide $3.20 by 16, that is what you would get. The equation would be
$3.20/ 16 oz. = $0.20

Answer 2

$0.20 per ounce.

Explanation:

We have been given that Sara bought a 16-ounce jar of strawberry jam for $3.20. We are asked to find the unit price.

To find the unit price, we will divide total cost by number of ounces as:

`\text{Unit price}=\frac{\$3.20}{\text{16 oz}}`

`\text{Unit price}=\frac{\$0.20}{\text{ oz}}`

Therefore, the unit price is $0.20 per ounce.
