Jacob needs 48 ounces of tomatoes for the spaghetti sauce. He is choosing between two brands of tomatoes. A 2-column table with 2 rows. Column 1 is labeled Brand A with entries 8 ounces, 2 dollars and 99 cents. Column 2 is labeled brand B with entries 16 ounces, 4 dollars and 99 cents.

Find the unit rate for each brand. Round to the nearest cent (hundredth).

Brand A costs
per ounce.
Brand B costs
per ounce.

The answer would be A. 1 1/5

48/40 = 1 8/40

1 8/40 Simplify to 1 1/5

Hope this helps!
