Tony was asked to bring root beer for root beer floats to the end of year class party. He is only given so much money for his budget. He finds a 64 oz. Bottle for $3.20. What is the unit rate price per ounce?

Question

A: $5.00
B: $0.05
C: $0.50
D: $1.00

Answer 1

To find the unit rate price per ounce, you can divide the total price of the bottle by the number of ounces it contains.

The total price of the 64 oz. bottle is $3.20.

So, the unit price per ounce is calculated as follows:

\[ \text{Unit Price} = \frac{\text{Total Price}}{\text{Total Ounces}} = \frac{3.20}{64} \]

Now you can calculate:

\[ \frac{3.20}{64} = 0.05 \]

Thus, the unit rate price per ounce is $0.05.

The correct answer is B: $0.05.
