You did not work the problem nor explain how to work it do I multiply do I divide?

I'm sorry, but I assumed that you knew that / meant divide.

3.84 / 16 = _______ per ounce

4.5 / 25 = _______ per ounce

To determine which juice is a better buy, we can calculate the price per ounce for each juice.

For Tropics juice:
Price = $3.84 for 16 ounces
Price per ounce = $3.84 ÷ 16 = $0.24 per ounce

For Juicy juice:
Price = $4.50 for 25 ounces
Price per ounce = $4.50 ÷ 25 = $0.18 per ounce

Comparing the prices per ounce, we can see that Tropics juice costs $0.24 per ounce while Juicy juice costs $0.18 per ounce.

Therefore, based on price per ounce, Juicy juice is a better buy as it is priced lower per ounce compared to Tropics juice.
