Brand 6

1) In this problem, we need to find the unit rate. So let's do it and then compare for both brands

2) Brand A

[tex]\begin{gathered} 20oz----2.5 \\ 1oz-----x \\ 20x=2.5 \\ \frac{20x}{20}=\frac{2.5}{20} \\ x=\$0.125 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So for Brand A, 1 oz is approximately 13 cents ( rounding up to the nearest hundredth)

3) Brand 6

We can write out another proportion:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 32oz----3.25 \\ 1oz----y \\ 32y=3.25 \\ \frac{32y}{32}=\frac{3.25}{32} \\ y=\$0.101 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So brand 6, 1 oz is approximately 10 cents.
