The 8-ounce box costs $2.88, while the 12-ounce box costs $3.60
First Box
The 8-ounce box costs $2.88
cost of 8 ounce box = 2.88
cost of 1 ounce box =![\frac{2.88}{8}=0.36](/tpl/images/0047/1776/edceb.png)
Cost of 1 ounce of first box = $0.36
Second Box
The 12-ounce box costs $3.60
cost of 12 ounce box = 3.60
cost of 1 ounce box =![\frac{3.60}{12}=0.3](/tpl/images/0047/1776/c234e.png)
Cost of 1 ounce of second box = $0.3
The cost of 1 ounce of first box is greater than the cost of 1 ounce of second box. So second box is better to by
12-ounce box costs $3.60 is better to buy
