To determine the unit price for each soda in the packs, divide the total price of each package by the number of sodas it contains.
-
6-pack for $2.99: \[ \text{Unit price} = \frac{2.99}{6} \approx 0.4983 \] Rounding to the hundredths place, the unit price is $0.50 per soda.
-
12-pack for $3.99: \[ \text{Unit price} = \frac{3.99}{12} \approx 0.3325 \] Rounding to the hundredths place, the unit price is $0.33 per soda.
-
24-pack for $5.99: \[ \text{Unit price} = \frac{5.99}{24} \approx 0.2496 \] Rounding to the hundredths place, the unit price is $0.25 per soda.
Summary:
- 6-pack: $0.50 per soda.
- 12-pack: $0.33 per soda.
- 24-pack: $0.25 per soda.
