What is cost price per ounce?

The cost price per ounce is the amount of money required to buy one ounce of a brand or goods.

To find the cost price per ounce, divide the total amount of cost of the goods to the total number of goods.

1. There are 8 ounces in 1 cup and 16 cups in 1 gallon. Diane brought 4.5 gallons of water to a campout.  Let x ounces of water, did she bring. Thus,

$x=4.5\times16\times8\\x=576\rm\; ounces$

Diane started a hike with 24 ounces of water in her backpack. The fraction of gallons in 24 ounces is,

$n=\dfrac{24}{8\times16}\\n=\dfrac{3}{16}$

Thus, the total ounces of water Diane brought are 576 ounces and  the fraction of a gallon of water did she start the hike with is 3/16.
