To find the cost of 1 pound of bananas, you can divide the total cost by the number of pounds.
Maya bought 6 lb of bananas for $3.54, so:
\[
\text{Cost per lb} = \frac{\text{Total cost}}{\text{Number of pounds}} = \frac{3.54}{6}
\]
Calculating that:
\[
\frac{3.54}{6} = 0.59
\]
So, the cost of 1 lb of bananas is $0.59.
