To find the unit price for each box, we divide the total cost of each box by the number of pencils in that box.

For the 10-count box: $1.50 ÷ 10 = $0.15/pencil
For the 25-count box: $2.75 ÷ 25 = $0.11/pencil

Therefore, the unit price for each box is as follows:
The 10-count box is $0.15/pencil.
The 25-count box is $0.11/pencil.
