Question

One brand of cereal sells for $3.15 for 10 ounces. What is the unit
price per pound?

Answer 1

First, we need to convert the price from ounces to pounds. There are 16 ounces in 1 pound.

10 ounces ÷ 16 = 0.625 pounds

Now, we can find the unit price per pound.

$3.15 ÷ 0.625 = $5.04 per pound

Therefore, the unit price per pound of the cereal is $5.04.
