Hello your question is incomplete below is the missing part and the needed diagram

suppose John is shopping and has $20 to spend on hand sanitizer. He can go with Germ-X (G) at $1 per fluid ounce (pG=1), or he can purchase purell (P) at $1.25 per fluid ounce (Pp=1.25). His utility function for the two different hand sanitizers is as follows:

U = G +1.1P

where G and P are measured in fluid ounces.

Solve the consumer’s problem for John’s optimal demand for Germ-X and Purell. (You should find actual numbers representing the quantity of Germ-X chosen and the quantity of purell chosen

ANSWER:  The solution =  (Germ-x,Purell ) = (20,0).

Explanation:

The consumers problem for John's optimal demand for Germ-x  and Purell as seen in the diagram can solved by John going maximizing his utility given the constraint of the budget,

that means that John will purchase/spend the constrained budget of ($20) on Germ-x  since the unit price of Germ X is at $1 while Purell's unit price is at $1.25 per fluid ounce
