To calculate the unit price for each pack, we divide the total cost by the number of cans in each pack.

  1. For the 8-can pack:

    • Cost: $4.48
    • Number of cans: 8
    • Unit price per can: $4.48 / 8 = $0.56
  2. For the 24-can case:

    • Cost: $9.60
    • Number of cans: 24
    • Unit price per can: $9.60 / 24 = $0.40

So the unit prices are:

  • $0.56 per bottle and $0.40 per can.

The correct response is: $0.56/bottle and $0.40/can
