Q. 99 pounds of kitty litter cost $2.88\$2.88. What is the price per ounce?\newline$\$_____
  1. Convert pounds to ounces: First, we need to determine the total number of ounces in 99 pounds, since the price is given in pounds and we want to find the price per ounce.\newlineThere are 1616 ounces in 11 pound.\newlineTotal ounces = 99 pounds ∗* 1616 ounces/pound
  2. Calculate total ounces: Now, we calculate the total number of ounces in 99 pounds.\newlineTotal ounces = 9×169 \times 16\newlineTotal ounces = 144144 ounces
  3. Find price per ounce: Next, we calculate the price per ounce by dividing the total cost by the total number of ounces.\newlinePrice per ounce = Total costTotal ounces\frac{\text{Total cost}}{\text{Total ounces}}\newlinePrice per ounce = $2.88144 ounces\frac{\$2.88}{144\ \text{ounces}}
  4. Perform division: Now, we perform the division to find the price per ounce. \newlinePrice per ounce = $2.88/144\$2.88 / 144\newlinePrice per ounce = $0.02\$0.02
