Question

abdul makes $28.20 from selling 56.4 ounces of lemonade
find the unit price in dollars per ounce.
if necessary, round your answer to the nearest cent.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall unit price formula

Unit price (dollars per ounce) is total money divided by total ounces. So formula is $\text{Unit Price} = \frac{\text{Total Money}}{\text{Total Ounces}}$.

Step2: Substitute values

Total money is $\$28.20$, total ounces is $56.4$. So $\text{Unit Price} = \frac{28.20}{56.4}$.

Step3: Perform division

$28.20 \div 56.4 = 0.5$.

Answer:

$\$0.50$
