First is to find out which price is lower for each when it's only for one ounce.

1) 3.99 / 25 = x / 1

Cross multiply.

3.99 = 25x

Divide both sides by 25.

0.1596 = x

Round to the nearest cent.

$0.16 per ounce


2) 6.99 / 90 = x / 1

Cross multiply the fractions.

6.99 = 90x

Divide both sides by 90.

0.0776667 = x

Round to the nearest cent.

$0.08 per ounce.


6.99 for 90oz is better because it is cheaper by 8 cents per ounce.
