Question

A lotion is made from an oil blend costing $1.50 per ounce and glycerin costing $1.00 per ounce. Four ounces of lotion costs $5.50.

Answer 1

What is the question?

Answer 2

I assume we're trying to figure out the ratio of the material

so we know 4 ounces = 5.50
an oil blend is 1.50 per ounce
and glycerin is 1.00 per ounce

Answer 3

Well I googled your question and now it seems like this question is incomplete

And we're trying to find an equation that would replace x

if we have (4-g) ounces and each ounce is 1.50, then to get the total cost you have to do what?

do you multiply? add? subtract? divide?

and bam that's your answer
