You pay $4.50 for 9 bagels. What is the unit price?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Unit price would be the price for each one individually. So just divide.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

9/4.50

OpenStudy (jamesj):

@psychot, yes. @mrs.m, no.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

price per bagel means \[\text{price}\div \text{number of bagels}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks mrs.math

OpenStudy (anonymous):

mrsmath told you how many bagels you can get for a dollar, she computed "bagels per dollar"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is not the unit price, it is the reciprocal of the unit price

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry, i meant 4.50/9 =0.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5cents is the unit proce

OpenStudy (anonymous):

psycho tink? qu'est-ce que c'est?

OpenStudy (jamesj):

No, not 5 cents. 0.5 dollars = 50 cents.
