Answer:
D. $0.035 per ounce.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given a table. We are asked to find the container that costs the least per ounce.
Let us find per ounce cost of each container as:
A. [tex]\frac{\$1.28}{\text{16 oz}}=\frac{\$0.08}{\text{oz}}[/tex]
B. [tex]\frac{\$1.92}{\text{32 oz}}=\frac{\$0.06}{\text{oz}}[/tex]
C. [tex]\frac{\$2.56}{\text{64 oz}}=\frac{\$0.04}{\text{oz}}[/tex]
D. [tex]\frac{\$1.92}{\text{96 oz}}=\frac{\$0.035}{\text{oz}}[/tex]
Therefore, the container with 96 oz for $3.36 costs the least per ounce.
