Divide this result by 9sq.ft./sq.yrd to derive your answer in square yards.

"unit price" is the price for ONE unit.

For example, if the price of 8 boxes is $4.80, then the price of ONE box (the unit price) would be the total price divided by the number of units...$4.80 divided by 8, in this example. 4.80/8 = 0.60, or $0.60. The unit price in this example is $0.60 (60 cents) for 1 box.

To calculate the unit price, divide the total price by the number of units. If the price of a 16-ounce jar of peanut butter is $2.80, then the peanut butter costs you $2.80/16 ounces, or $0.175 (about 18 cents) for one ounce. The unit price, then, is $0.175 per ounce.

As a consumer, you may be looking for the LOWEST unit price for the same product.
