Ice cream sandwiches come 6 to a package.

One package costs $4.32.

​

What is the unit price for an ice cream sandwich?

​

​Unit Price is the cost of ONE ice cream sandwich. To find the unit price, take the cost for a package of ice cream sandwiches and divide it by how many sandwiches there are.

​

​So....$4.32 divided by 6 = $0.72.  Does that make sense?

​

​To check it, do $0.72 x 6.  Do you get $4.32??
