Answer: The required price is $0.32.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that a gallon of Moo Milk costs $5.12. And there are 128 ounces in 1 gallon.

We are to find the price of an 8 ounce glass of Moo Milk in dollars.

We will be using the UNITARY METHOD to solve.

128 ounces of milk = 1 gallon.

So, 1 ounce of milk
=(1)/(128) gallon.

Therefore, 8 ounces of milk will be equal to


(1)/(128)* 8=(1)/(16)~\textup{gallon}.

Cost of 1 gallon = $5.12.

So, cost of
(1)/(16) gallon is given by


(1)/(16)* 5.12=\$0.32.

Thus, the required price is $0.32.
