At Family Market, an 8-can pack of bottles costs $4.48, and a 24-can case costs $9.60. (Both the bottle and the can are 12 ounces.) What is the unit price for each? (1 point)
O 0.56 bottle/$1.00 and 0.40 can/$1.00
• 1.79 bottles/$1.00 and 2.53 cans/$1.00
O $1.79/bottle and $2.53/can
O $0.56/bottle and $0.40/can
The correct answer is:
$0.56/bottle and $0.40/can
To calculate the unit price, divide the total cost of the item by the number of units.
For the 8-can pack of bottles:
Unit price = total cost / number of units = $4.48 / 8 = $0.56 per bottle.
For the 24-can case:
Unit price = total cost / number of units = $9.60 / 24 = $0.40 per can.
So the correct answer is:
O 0.56 bottle/$1.00 and 0.40 can/$1.00
To find the unit price for each, we need to divide the cost by the number of units.
For the 8-can pack of bottles:
The cost is $4.48, and there are 8 cans.
So the unit price for each can is $4.48 / 8 = $0.56.
For the 24-can case:
The cost is $9.60, and there are 24 cans.
So the unit price for each can is $9.60 / 24 = $0.40.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
O 0.56 bottle/$1.00 and 0.40 can/$1.00
