Answer:

The medium-sized can is the cheaper by the oz, and is $0.005 per oz. cheaper.

Step-by-step explanation:

Medium can:  $0.92/(46 oz) = $0.020/oz

Large can:   $3.60 / (144 oz) = $0.025/oz

Surprisingly, the medium can price per oz. is lower than that of the large can.  The difference is $0.005 per oz.
