To find the unit cost per candy bar, you need to divide the total cost by the number of candy bars. The correct process to solve this problem is:

350 ÷ 1000 (350 divided by 1000).

Now, for question 2, you can calculate the unit cost per candy bar:

\[ \text{Unit cost} = \frac{350}{1000} = 0.35 \]

Therefore, the unit price is $0.35 per candy bar.

In summary:

Question 1:

  • The process used is 350 ÷ 1000.

Question 2:

  • The unit price is $0.35 per candy bar.
