Answer:

The unit price is $1.19. Her error was that instead of dividing by 4 dozen (48) she just divided by 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

First to calculate the unit price you must divide the total price (57.12) by the amount of pairs they received (4*12= 48).  4 dozen is 48 since there is 12 in a dozen.

57.12/48= 1.19

Thus 1.19 is the unit price.
