Miguel plans to make milkshakes for a party. The grocery store sells four sizes of milk at the following prices:
Price:$3.55 1 gallon (128 oz)
Price: $2.05 1/2 gallon (64 oz)
Price: $ 2.82 1 quart (32 oz)
Price $1.48 1 pint (16 oz)
What is the price per pound for each option? (round to the nearest hundredth)
- 1 gallon (128 oz): $3.55 / 128 oz = $0.0277 per oz
- 1/2 gallon (64 oz): $2.05 / 64 oz = $0.0320 per oz
- 1 quart (32 oz): $2.82 / 32 oz = $0.0881 per oz
- 1 pint (16 oz): $1.48 / 16 oz = $0.0925 per oz
Therefore, the price per ounce for each option is:
- 1 gallon: $0.0277 per oz
- 1/2 gallon: $0.0320 per oz
- 1 quart: $0.0881 per oz
- 1 pint: $0.0925 per oz
