Answer:

Which is the better price per ounce?

Cereal brand A

Step-by-step explanation:

To find which brand has better price per ounce, we have information that

Brand A

ounce =18

Price = $2.50

Brand B

ounce = 24

price = $3.50

We will divide each cereal price by the amount of ounces.

Brand A

=2,50 / 18

= $0.13888

= $0.14

Brand B

= 3.50 / 24

=$0.14583

= $0.15

So, since cereal band A is less cost per ounce than brand B. Brand A is the cheaper one.
