An 8-kilogram bag of cat food costs $5.84. What is the unit price?

1 answer

To find the unit price of the cat food, you need to divide the total cost by the total weight in kilograms.

The total cost is $5.84, and the weight is 8 kilograms.

So, the unit price can be calculated as follows:

\[ \text{Unit price} = \frac{\text{Total cost}}{\text{Weight}} = \frac{5.84}{8} \]

Now, performing the division:

\[ \frac{5.84}{8} = 0.73 \]

Therefore, the unit price of the cat food is $0.73 per kilogram.
