  1. To find the best buy, you'll need to figure out the price per ounce (unit price).

    Squeaky Clean at 5.5 ounces costs $0.36.
    Divide: 0.36 / 5.5 = $0.065 per ounce

    Smell Fresh: 0.41 / 7.5 = $0.055 per ounce.

    I think you can finish these calculations and decide which is the best buy.

    We'll be glad to check your answers.
