Alright, lets get started.
Matt can buy an 8-ounce jar of salsa for $2.79 or a 15-ounce jar of salsa for $5.54.
When 8 ounce jar of salsa = 2.79 $
1 ounce of salsa will be = [tex]\frac{2.79}{8}[/tex]
So, 1 ounce of salsa will be = 0.34875 $
Secondly, when 15 ounce jar of salsa = 5.54 $
So, 1 ounce of salsa will be = [tex]\frac{5.54}{15}[/tex]
1 ounce of salsa = 0.3693 $ which is more than the previous result.
So, 0.34875 $ will be the best unit rate for salsa.
8-ounce jar of salsa for $2.79 will be the answer for best unit rate. : Answer
