What is 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.

As,  

Small can: A 200 ml can costs £0.88.

Medium can: A 500 ml can costs £1.32.

Large can: A 1 litre can costs £3.60.

Now, 200 ml = 0.2 l

500 ml = 0.5 l

For 0.2 l = 0.88

For 1 l= 0.88/0.2

For 1 liter = 4.4

For 0.5l medium can = 1.32

For 1 l medium can= 1.32/0.5

For 1 l medium can = 2.4

Hence, cost of 1 liter for the small can is £ 0.88 the cost of 1 liter for the medium can is £ 2.4.
