do 2.98/6 first

OpenStudy (nuccioreggie):

I think its A i just wanna make sure

OpenStudy (black_ninja123):

A because 2.98/6=0.496 and 7.18/13=0.55

OpenStudy (phi):

they want price per ounce so write the price divided by the number of ounces and simplify

OpenStudy (nuccioreggie):

A the answer??
