Unit prices 3.58/15 and 4.25/25 dollars per ounce.
That is, 0.2387 and 0.17 dollars per ounce, the second one being the least expensive.

Answer:

25 oz for $4.25 is less expensive

Step-by-step explanation:

15 oz for $3.58 or 25 oz for $4.25

To find the cost of 1 oz  we divide the cost by the number of ounce

15 oz for $3.58

[tex]\frac{3.58}{15}[/tex] = 0.23867 is the cost of 1 oz

25 oz for $4.25

[tex]\frac{4.25}{25}[/tex] = 0.17 is the cost of 1 oz

the cost of second one is less expensive

So 25 oz for $4.25 is less expensive
