Question

Mike bought four bananas for five dollars. What was the cost of the bananas in bananas per dollars?

Answer 1

To find the cost of bananas in terms of bananas per dollar, we can set up the problem using the information given:

Mike bought 4 bananas for 5 dollars.

To find the cost in bananas per dollar, we need to divide the number of bananas by the total cost in dollars:

\[
\text{Number of bananas per dollar} = \frac{\text{Number of bananas}}{\text{Cost in dollars}} = \frac{4 \text{ bananas}}{5 \text{ dollars}} = 0.8 \text{ bananas per dollar}
\]

So, the cost of the bananas is **0.8 bananas per dollar**.
