The answer to this problem is B. Choice B.

The price per ounce can be determined by taking the price and dividing it by the ounces.
Choice A: 3.49/22=.16
Choice B: 4.79/40=.12

Since Choice B is priced $0.12 by the ounce and Choice a is priced $0.16 by the ounce, Choice b is the lowest price per ounce.
