Computing Unit Prices. Calculate the unit price of each of the following item.

Item Price Size Unit Price

Motor oil $1.95 2.5 quarts cents/quart

Cereal 2.17 15 ounces cents/ounces

Canned Fruit 0.89 13 ounces cents/ounces

Facial Tissue 2.25 300 tissues cents/100tissues

Shampoo 3.96 17 ounces cents/ounces

Since 2.5 quarts is not a unit it needs to be divided by itself to get 1 quart.

whatever you do to one value you need to do to the other; so, 1.95/2.5.

and since its asking for cents, we can ignore the decimal: 195/2.5 cents.

2.25 : : 300 tissues cents/100 tissues

divide each side by 3 to get it in terms of 100 tissues
