Given:
Grocery store: 8 ounces of blueberries = $2.80
Farmer's market : 14 ounces of blueberries = $4.20
1 pound = 16 ounces.

Unit rate: per ounce
Grocery store:      $2.80 ÷ 8 oz = $0.35 per ounce
Farmer's market: $4.20 ÷ 14 oz  = $0.30 per ounce

Unit rate per pound
Grocery store:      $0.35 per ounce * 16 ounces = $5.60 per pound
Farmer's market: $0.30 per ounce * 16 ounces = $4.80 per pound
