To find the price per pound for the potatoes, you can divide the total cost by the total weight.

The total cost is $3.95, and the total weight is 5 pounds.

Price per pound = Total cost / Total weight

\[ \text{Price per pound} = \frac{3.95}{5} = 0.79 \]

So, the price per pound for potatoes is $0.79.
