  14. Price Comparison • Unit Pricing: the price per unit (oz., liters, ect.) in a package. • Unit price = total cost ÷ total amount in package. • Ex. $3.69 / 15.2 fl. oz. = 24.3¢

  15. Which is the better value? • Ketchup: 32 oz. for $2.88 or 14 oz. for $1.70? • 2.88 ÷ 32= $.09 per oz. • 1.70 ÷ 14= $.12 per oz. • Yogurt: 32 oz. for 3.96 or 6 oz. for $.57? • 3.96 ÷ 32= $.123 per oz. • .57 ÷ 6= $.095 per oz.

  23. Preparing Meals: Scheduling • Time Schedules- plan what will be done, how long it will take, and when it will be done • Work backward from the time you want to serve the food so that everything is ready at the same time.
