Question 987186: Grunela went to the health food store and saw that oats cost 36 per ounce, raisins cost 43 cents per ounce, and almonds cost 45 cents per ounce. She bought enough of each to make a pound (16 ounces) of homemade granola. She noticed when she checked out that the total price of the ingredients meant her homemade granola would cost a reasonable 39 cents an ounce. How many ounces of oats, raisins, and almonds did Grunela buy?
