If 3 pounds of apples costs $0.90, how much will 10 pounds cost?

1 answer

To find the cost of 10 pounds, we need to determine the cost per pound of apples.

The cost per pound can be found by dividing the total cost ($0.90) by the weight (3 pounds):

$0.90 / 3 pounds = $0.30 per pound

So, 10 pounds of apples will cost:

10 pounds x $0.30 per pound = $<<10*0.30=3>>3
