How much do raisins cost per ounce?
How many ounces of raisins can be bought for 1 dollar

Answer 1

Answer:

1.) $0.80

2.) 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Given - Price of 5 ounces

Find - Cost per ounce and ounces per dollar

Solution - Unitary method will be used to find solution for both the cases.

Cost of 5 ounces of raisins = $4

Cost of one ounce of raisins = 4/5

Performing division

Cost of one ounce of raisins = $0.8

Ounces of raisins bought for $4 = 5

Ounces of raisins bought for $1 =5/4*1

Performing division and multiplication

Ounces of raisins bought for $1 = 1.25

Hence, $0.8 is the cost of raisins per ounce and 1.25 ounces of raisins can be bought for $1.
