At the supermarket you can fill your own honey bear container. A customer buys 12 oz of honey for $5.40. How much does honey cost per ounce? How much honey can you buy per dollar? Write two different equations that represent this situation. Use h for ounces of honey and c for cost in dollars.

a. $0.45; b. 2.22 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that acustomer buys 12 oz of honey for $5.40.

a. How much does honey cost per ounce?

= $5.40/12

= $0.45
