Information Given:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 pound = $12

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rewrite 1 pound as 16 ounces:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
16 ounces = $12

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find 1 ounce:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 ounce = $12 ÷ 16 = $0.75

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The price is $0.75 per ounce of confetti.
