Question

2.25 pounds of meat that cost 2.80 per pound

Answer 1

To find the total cost of 2.25 pounds of meat at a price of $2.80 per pound, you can multiply the weight by the cost per pound:

\[
\text{Total Cost} = \text{Weight} \times \text{Cost per Pound}
\]

\[
\text{Total Cost} = 2.25 \, \text{pounds} \times 2.80 \, \text{dollars/pound} = 6.30 \, \text{dollars}
\]

So, the total cost of 2.25 pounds of meat is $6.30.
