Example 3
Using Decimal Numbers in a Ratio
The price of a bag of dog food increased from
$22.95 to $25.50. Find the ratio of the increase in
price to the original price.
new price – original price = increase
$25.50  $22.95 = $2.55
Find the ratio of the increase in price to the original
price.
2.55  increase in price
22.95
 original price
Now write the ratio as a ratio of whole numbers.

Slide 5.2- 9
When the denominator of a rate is 1, it is called
a unit rate. For example, you earn $16.25 for
1 hour of work.
This unit rate is written:
$16.25 per hour
Use per or a slash mark (/) when writing unit rates.

Example 2
Finding Unit Rates
Find each unit rate.
a. 445.5 miles on 16.5 gallons of gas
445.5 miles
16.5 gallons
Divide to find the unit rate.
27
16.5 445.5
445.5 miles  16.5 27 miles

16.5 gallons  16.5

Determining the Best Buy
A local store charges the following prices for
jars of jelly.
$3.69
$3.09
$2.39
18 oz.
24 oz.
28 oz.
The best buy is the container with the lowest cost per
unit. All the jars are measured in ounces. Find the
cost per ounce for each one by dividing the price of
the jar by the number of ounces in it. Round to the
nearest thousandth if necessary.

Example 4
Solving Best Buy Applications
Juice is sold as a concentrated can as well as
in a ready to serve carton. Which of the choices
below is the best buy?
12 oz can makes 48
ounces of juice for $1.69
60 oz carton for $2.59
To determine the best buy, divide the cost by the
number of ounces.
