The best buy is (d) a 9 oz box of rice $1.25

How to determine the best buy?

The best buy is the product that has the least unit rate.

The unit rate is calculated as:

Unit = Price/Weight

So, we have:

Box 1:

Unit rate = $0.90/6 oz = $0.150 per oz

Box 2:

Unit rate = $1.93/12 oz = $0.161 per oz

Box 3:

Unit rate = $2.42/16 oz = $0.151 per oz

Box 4:

Unit rate = $1.25/9 oz = $0.139 per oz

The least unit price is $0.139 per oz for box 4

Hence, the best buy is (d) a 9 oz box of rice $1.25
