hello

to solve this question, we need to relate both statements

[tex]\begin{gathered} 16oz=1.09 \\ 32oz=1.89 \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} \text{if 32oz cost \$1.89} \\ 1\text{ oz = ? (x)} \\ \text{cross multiply and solve for x} \\ x=\frac{1.89\times1}{32} \\ x=\text{ \$0.059} \end{gathered}[/tex]

the 32oz can cost $0.059 per ounce
