Answer:

0.45

Explanation:

Given data

cost of 12 oz of honey = $5.40

Let us find the cost per oz of honey bear

cost per oz= 5.40/12

cost per oz= $0.45 per oz

hence the constant of proportionality for the situation is 0.45

to find the cost for any number of oz, simply multiply the amount of oz by 0.45
