Answer:

Difference = $0.01

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost of half gallon = $1.82

Cost of one gallon = $3.68

First we will convert gallons to ounces.

1 gallon = 128 ounces

half gallon = 64 ounces

Now,

we will find unit rate of both.

Unit rate of half gallon = [tex]\frac{1.28}{64} = \$0.02[/tex]

Unit rate of one gallon = [tex]\frac{3.68}{128} = \$0.03[/tex]

Difference= 0.03 - 0.02 = $0.01

Hence,

Difference = $0.01
