What can you do when the unit prices for two comparable items are listed using different units of measure? a. the secondary units don’t affect the cost. as long as both prices are in dollars or cents, you can compare the two. b. the unit prices are based on the cost of the whole package, so divide each base cost by each unit price to get comparable units. c. use conversion rates to change one unit into the other unit, so that both prices are listed using like units. d. unit prices are ratios, so you can add the two prices together and divide by the smaller unit price to get a usable number. select the best answer from the choices provided a b c d

Option C is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is - Use conversion rates to change one unit into the other unit, so that both prices are listed using like units.

When we want to compare two entities, they must have the same unit.

Like we have been given two heights : 6 feet and 165 cm

We have to compare both. But first we need to change these numbers to same unit that is either feet or cm.

We will convert cm to feet for comparison.

1 cm = 0.0328 feet

So, 165 cm = feet

Now we got two heights with same unit that can be easily compared. We can say that 6 feet > 5.41 feet.
