A box of chocolates weighs 226.8 grams and costs $14.99. If 1 ounce is approximately 28.35 grams, what is the unit price per ounce of the chocolates?

Convert the box’s weight to ounces: 226.8 ÷ 28.35 = 8 ounces. Then divide the total cost by the number of ounces: $14.99 ÷ 8 = about $1.87 per ounce. The correct choice is $1.87.
