Answer: She would need 24 dollars in order to buy 12 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

So you take the original information, and you find out how much it costs for each ounce of tea.

Divide $10 by 5ounces

then you get $2 per ounce.

So then you take the 12 ounces and multiply it by $2.

12 ($2) = $24
