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 ounze?

Question

$5.00
$0.05
$1.00
$0.50

Answer 1

To find the unit rate price per ounce of the 64 oz bottle that costs $3.20, you can divide the total price by the total number of ounces:

\[ \text{Unit price per ounce} = \frac{\text{Total price}}{\text{Total ounces}} = \frac{3.20}{64} \]

Calculating that:

\[ \text{Unit price per ounce} = \frac{3.20}{64} = 0.05 \]

So the unit rate price per ounce is $0.05.
