Answer : C. $1.87
A box of chocolates weighs 226.8 grams and costs $14.99.
The cost of 226.8 grams of chocolate = $14.99
The cost of 1 gram of chocolate = [tex] \frac{14.99}{226.8} = 0.066093474 [/tex]
We got the cost of 1 gram of chocolate. now we find the cost of 28.35 grams (1 ounce) of chocolate .
The cost of 1 gram of chocolate = 0.066093474
The cost of 28.35 grams of chocolate = 0.066093474*28.35= 1.8737
The unit price per ounce of the chocolate is $1.87
