What is a unitary method?
The unitary method is a technique for solving a problem by first finding the value of a single unit, and then finding the necessary value by multiplying the single unit value.
Calculation :
1 pound = 16 ounces
Total cheese Ellie has = [tex]\frac{2}{8}[/tex] pound
Cheese required to make tacos = [tex]\frac{2}{8}[/tex]×[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] pounds
Ounces of cheese required to make cheese are [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] × 16 = 2 ounces
