Which size ice cream dessert gives you the best price per ounce? Small 6-oz for $2.49. Medium 10-oz cup for $3.49. Large 16-oz cup for $4.99. Or Super size 24-oz cup for $7.69.

The large size gives the lowest price per ounce of 3.11875, therefor the best in terms of price

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Determine expression for price per ounce

The expression for the total price of an ice cream dessert is as follows;

T=p*n

where;

T=total price of ice cream

p=price per ounce of ice cream

n=number of ounces of ice cream

Step 2: Convert total price to price per ounce

The expression can be rewritten as;

p=T/n

1. For small 6 ounce at $2.49, T=2.49, n=6-oz

p=2.49/6=0.415

The price per ounce of the small ice cream dessert=$0.415 per ounce

2. For the Medium 10-oz for $3.49, T=$3.49, n=10-oz

p=3.49/10=0.349

The price per ounce of the medium ice cream dessert=$0.349 per ounce

3. For the Large 16-oz for $4.99, T = $4.99, n=16

p=4.99/16=$0.311875

The price per ounce of the medium ice cream dessert=$0.311875 per ounce

4. For the super size 24-oz for $7.69, T=$7.69, n=24

p=7.69/24=0.32

The price per ounce of the super size cup is 0.32 per ounce

The large size gives the lowest price per ounce of 3.11875, therefor the best in terms of price
