take 24 and divide it by 16 to find the unit price.  because there are 4 gallons and 4 quarts in each gallon.  24/16=1.5   so the lovin componany is 1.5 dollars per quart
the sweet and sour take 8 and divide it by 16  16/8=2  so the sweet and sour company is 2 dollars.  so the sweet and sour has a higher unit price

Answer:

Sweet and sour company has a higher unit price.

Step-by-step explanation:

The lovin lemon company sells a 4 gallon jug of lemonade for $24

We will convert 4 gallon jug into quart bottle.

Since 1 gallon = 4 quarts

         4 gallons = 16 quarts

Now per unit cost of lemonade by lovin lemon company = [tex]\frac{24}{16}[/tex]

= $1.5 per quart

Now second company sweet and sour sells an eight pack of 1 quart bottles of lemonade for $16

So unit price of the lemonade =  [tex]\frac{16}{8}[/tex] = $2 per quarts

Sweet and sour company has a higher unit price.
