Compare price per ounce.
- 10-oz bottle: $9.50 ÷ 10 = $0.95 per ounce
- 5-oz bottle: $5.00 ÷ 5 = $1.00 per ounce
The 10-ounce bottle is the better deal — it’s $0.05 cheaper per ounce. (Buying two 5-oz bottles to get 10 oz would cost $10.00, $0.50 more than the 10-oz bottle.)
- 10-oz bottle: $9.50 ÷ 10 = $0.95 per ounce
