Rosie buys her favorite hot chocolate from a hot chocolate shop. She pays $5.00 and gets a 20 oz.

Question

cup. What is the unit rate price per ounce for her hot chocolate?

Answer 1

To find the unit rate price per ounce for the hot chocolate, you can divide the total cost by the total number of ounces.

The cost of the hot chocolate is $5.00, and the volume is 20 ounces.

\[ \text{Unit rate price per ounce} = \frac{\text{Total Cost}}{\text{Total Ounces}} = \frac{5.00}{20} \]

Calculating this gives:

\[ \text{Unit rate price per ounce} = \frac{5.00}{20} = 0.25 \]

Thus, the unit rate price per ounce for her hot chocolate is $0.25 per ounce.
