Step-by-step explanation:

We can find any of these two rates: ounces per dollar or dollars per ounce

• Ounces per dollar:


\frac{35\text{ounces}}{9.80\text{ dollars}}=3.57\text{ ounces per dollar}

• Dollars per ounce


(9.80dollars)/(35ounces)=0.28\text{ dollars per ounce = \$0.28 per ounce}

Answer:

From these options, the correct one is D. $0.28 per ounce
