6 pounds of steak cost $23.04. What is the price per ounce?

(Please tell how you got the answer)

$0.24 per ounce

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  To find the unit price, divide the price by the total units

23.04 / 6

$3.84 per pound

This gives us the price per pound:  $3.84 per pound

Step 2:  Convert to ounces

1 pound = 16 ounces

3.84 pounds / 16 ounces

$0.24 per ounce

 $0.24 per ounce

24 cents

Step-by-step explanation: First, let's convert 6 pounds to ounces so we're dealing with the same units which will be ounces.

To convert 6 pounds into ounces, first find the conversion factor for pounds and ounces which is 16 ounces = 1 pound.

Next, notice that we're going from a larger unit, pounds, to a smaller unit, ounces. When we go from a larger unit to a smaller unit, we multiply.

So here,

we multiply 6 pounds by the conversion factor, 16 to get 96 ounces.

This means that 6 pounds is equal to 96 ounces.

Now, since we know that 6 pounds of steak is equivalent to 96 ounces of steak, we can rewrite the problem by just substituting 96 ounces in for 6 pounds.

96 ounces of steak cost $23.04. What is the price per ounce?

To solve this word problem, we need to find the unit price for 1 ounce.

Unit price means the cost per unit which in this case is the cost per ounce of steak.

Since we know that it costs $23.04 for 96 ounces, to find the cost per ounce, we need to divide 96 into $23.04 or 96 into 23.04.

So we have 23.04 ÷ 96 which is 0.24.

This means that the cost per ounce of steak is 24 cents.
