Reasoning & candidate comparison Contains the answer
Check package size and compare like units
- Read the full product label before estimating: “Lemons, 5 lbs” specifies 5 lbs. 5 lbs is 80 oz in total.
- After revealing the recorded $6.99 answer, normalize it: $6.99 ÷ 80 = $0.09 per oz. This is the unit-price scale to compare with the full-package price; the two are not interchangeable.
| Candidate / approach | Assessment | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Full listed package: $6.99 | Recorded answer | Covers all 80 oz stated in the label, not just one oz. |
| One oz: $0.09 | Different quantity, not the pack answer | Dividing by 80 changes the quantity being priced. Entering this unit amount for the full product would understate its recorded price by $6.90. This is an illustrative unit-mix-up, not a reported player guess. |
What this does and does not establish
- This is an after-reveal price breakdown, not an independently derived retail valuation or a claim about the current Costco checkout price. Package size alone cannot determine price. Plain “oz” labels are treated as weight; they are not silently converted to fluid ounces.
