Answer:5 21 smaller

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of:  (1) 23

                        (2) 21

                        (3) smaller which is 12-ounce

What is Unitary Method?

'In unitary method we will learn how to find the value of a unit from the value of a multiple and the value of a multiple from the value of a unit.'

According to the given problem,

The larger box costs [tex]\frac{4.59}{20}[/tex] = $0.2295 = 22.95 cents/ounce

The smaller box  costs [tex]\frac{2.52}{12}[/tex] = $0.21 = 21 cents/ounce

now, 22.95 > 21

Therefore, the cereal in the smaller box costs less per ounce.

Hence, we can conclude that the larger box costs 23 cents/ounce approximately, the smaller box costs 21 cents/ounce and the smaller box costs less per ounce.
