To find the price per ounce of the shampoo, you can divide the total price by the number of ounces.
Cost of the shampoo = $4.69
Number of ounces = 16 ounces
Now, calculate the price per ounce:
\[
\text{Price per ounce} = \frac{\text{Total cost}}{\text{Number of ounces}} = \frac{4.69}{16}
\]
Calculating this:
\[
\frac{4.69}{16} = 0.293125
\]
Rounding to the nearest cent, we get:
\[
0.293125 \approx 0.29
\]
Therefore, the price per ounce, rounded to the nearest cent, is **$0.29**.
Cost of the shampoo = $4.69

Now, calculate the price per ounce:
\[
\text{Price per ounce} = \frac{\text{Total cost}}{\text{Number of ounces}} = \frac{4.69}{16}
\]
Calculating this:
\[
\frac{4.69}{16} = 0.293125

Rounding to the nearest cent, we get:
\[
