Answer:
Best buy is answer choice (b).
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the unit price per ounce, we divide the total by number of ounces.
a. In cents: [tex]\frac{96}{16}=6[/tex] cents per ounce
b. $1.75 is equal to [tex]1.75*100=175[/tex] cents. So we have: [tex]\frac{175}{32}=5.47[/tex] cents per ounce
So we see that the second choice is "cheaper" per ounce, so second option, (b), is the best buy.
