James has to buy juice for his class party. There are several brands of juice at the store, and each container is a different size and price. Write a formula that will help James find the price per milliliter for each brand. Let x= price of juice, y= number of milliliters in carton, and z= price per milliliter.
i dont get it
To find the price per milliliter for each brand of juice, we can use the formula:
z = x / y
Here,
- x represents the price of the juice container.
- y represents the number of milliliters in the juice carton.
- z represents the price per milliliter.
To use this formula, simply divide the price of the juice container (x) by the number of milliliters in the carton (y). The result will give you the price per milliliter (z) for that particular brand of juice.
$/ml is what we want. So, of course, that means that
x $ / y ml = x/y $/ml = z $/ml
z = x/y
