Bird seed costs $4.80 for a 32-ounce bag.

Question

What is the unit cost of the bird seed per ounce

Answer 1

To find the unit cost per ounce of the bird seed, we need to divide the total cost of the bag by the number of ounces it contains.

Unit cost per ounce = Total cost / Number of ounces

Total cost = $4.80
Number of ounces = 32

Unit cost per ounce = $4.80 / 32 = $0.15

Therefore, the unit cost of the bird seed per ounce is $0.15.
