To find out how much the mushrooms cost, we first need to convert the weight from pounds to ounces.
Since there are 16 ounces in a pound, 30 ounces of mushrooms is equal to 30/16 = 1.875 pounds.
Now, we can calculate the cost of the mushrooms by multiplying the weight in pounds by the price per pound:
1.875 pounds * $2.00/pound = $3.75
Therefore, the mushrooms cost $3.75.
