1. By: Ariana Thompson Math Class: 5 th Period Which One is Best?

2. What is Unit Rate? Unit Rate is a rate simplified so that it has denominator of one. Example: Mom went to the store to get groceries. When she got to the juice aisle she wanted to know if it was cheaper to get Mott’s apple juice or Juicy Juice. The Mott’s was $3.50 for 70oz. The Juicy Juice was $4.15 for 207oz. Which is the cheapest per ounce? Equation: $3.50 Now you can divide these to get 70oz. unit rate per ounce. Answer: 5 cents per oz. $4.15 207oz. Answer:49 cents per oz. So, the answer to this question is Mott’s apple juice.

3. What did I Compare? I compared different brand of color pencils. The brands I compared was: Crayola, Sargent Art, and Cra- Z-Art. Each had twelve colored pencils, but they were all different prices. So, I figured out how much was one color pencil in each box.

4. How much was in each Box? Cra-Z-Art = 2.95 Sergent Art = 2.50 Crayola = 2.80 Crayola = $2.80 12 When you divide this you get.23 cents for each colored pencils

5. Sergent Art Sergent Art=2.50 12 When you divide these you get.20 cents per colored pencil.

6. Cra-Z-Art Cra-Z-Art = $2.95 12 When you divide these you get.24 cents per colored pencil.

7. What’s the Best Price? Here are our unit rates for all three of them. Cra-Z-Art =.24 per cents colored pencil Sergent Art =.20 per cents colored pencil Crayola =.23 per cents colored pencil So, in this case Crayola is the cheapest because it has the lowest price out of all three of them
