Answer 2

$0.8 per raisin and

1 1/4 ounces of raisin

Explanation:

Jason bought 5 ounces of raisins for $4.

Cost of each raisin = cost of raisins / no. of raisins per ounce

That’s $4/5

= $0.8

Each raisin cost $0.8 per ounce .

Also, if

$4 = 5 ounces

$1 = A ounces

Cross multiply

4 x A = 1 x 5

Divide both sides by 4

A = 5/4

A = 1 1/4

1 1/4 ounces of raisins can be bought for $1
