Caitlin is at the grocery store, and she’s trying to find the unit price on a 6-pack of drinks on sale for $2.99. Her younger brother says that at that price, each drink would cost just over $1.00. Is he correct, and how do you know? If he were incorrect, how would Caitlin’s brother find the correct price?
If you are trying to find the unit price you can do this by, the total price / by the amount of products. Therefore 2.99/6. This would give you 0.49333 which could be rounded up to 0.49. Therefore her younger brother is wrong as $0.49 is less than $1.
