Answer 1

hm. not really sure what "explain what this competency means"

but basically, you need to divide $2.50 by 16 oz to get the cost per oz. then multiply by 24 to get the price for 24 oz.

for "another method" you could set up a proportion where

$2.50/16 = x/24 and solve for x, it should give the same result
