Brand “A”: 6 ounce can for $1.20

Brand “B”: 7 ounce can for $1.47

Brand “C”: 8 ounce can for $1.52

Which is the better buy, and what is the unit, rate, and final price for each brand?

You need to figure out the cost per ounce for each brand. Divide the cost by the number of ounces.

Example:

Brand A:
$1.20 / 6 = $0.20 per ounce
