To find the unit rate of the cost per pound of sugar, you divide the total cost by the weight in pounds.
Given:
- Cost of the sugar = $8.75
- Weight of the sugar = 3 pounds
Unit rate = Total cost / Weight
Unit rate = $8.75 / 3 pounds = $2.9167 (approximately)
Thus, the unit rate is approximately $2.92 per pound.
