To find the unit price for one towel, you need to divide the total cost by the number of towels.

Total cost for 7 towels = $35.99

Unit price for one towel = Total cost / Number of towels

Unit price for one towel = $35.99 / 7

Calculating that gives:

Unit price for one towel = $5.142857...

This rounds to approximately $5.14.

So the correct response is:

$5.14
