GPT 3.5
To find the cost per ounce for each box, divide the total cost by the number of ounces:
Cost per ounce for the 6-ounce box: $0.90 / 6 = $0.15 per ounce
Cost per ounce for the 3-ounce box: $0.42 / 3 = $0.14 per ounce
The difference in cost per ounce between the larger and smaller boxes is:
$0.15 - $0.14 = $0.01
Therefore, the difference in the cost per ounce between the larger and smaller boxes is $0.01.
Cost per ounce for the 6-ounce box: $0.90 / 6 = $0.15 per ounce
Cost per ounce for the 3-ounce box: $0.42 / 3 = $0.14 per ounce
The difference in cost per ounce between the larger and smaller boxes is:
$0.15 - $0.14 = $0.01
Therefore, the difference in the cost per ounce between the larger and smaller boxes is $0.01.
