the fram family decided to plant carrots on the section or land. If they paid $467.25 for 17.8 pounds of carrot seeds, what is the price per pound

To find the price per pound of carrot seeds, you need to divide the total cost by the total weight in pounds.

Here's the calculation:

\[
\text{Price per pound} = \frac{\text{Total Cost}}{\text{Total Weight}} = \frac{467.25}{17.8}
\]

Calculating it gives:

\[
\text{Price per pound} = 26.25
\]

So, the answers to your prompts are:

In this case, that operation is going to be **division**, and we know that because we're asked to calculate a unit rate, or price per **pound**.

The price of carrot seeds is **$26.25** per pound.
