Raphael went to the store and bought 2 1/2 pounds of chicken for $9.00. At this rate, how much would it cost for 1, 2, and 3 pounds of chicken

Answer 1

To find the cost for 1 pound of chicken, we need to divide the total cost by the number of pounds purchased:

Cost for 1 pound of chicken = $9.00 / 2.5 pounds
Cost for 1 pound of chicken = $3.60

So, it would cost $3.60 for 1 pound of chicken.

To find the cost for 2 pounds of chicken, we simply need to double the cost of 1 pound:

Cost for 2 pounds of chicken = $3.60 x 2
Cost for 2 pounds of chicken = $7.20

So, it would cost $7.20 for 2 pounds of chicken.

To find the cost for 3 pounds of chicken, we need to triple the cost of 1 pound:

Cost for 3 pounds of chicken = $3.60 x 3
Cost for 3 pounds of chicken = $10.80

So, it would cost $10.80 for 3 pounds of chicken.

Answer 2

you sure?

Answer 3

Let me recheck the calculations:

Cost for 1 pound of chicken = $9.00 / 2.5 pounds
Cost for 1 pound of chicken = $3.60

So, it would cost $3.60 for 1 pound of chicken.

Cost for 2 pounds of chicken = $3.60 x 2
Cost for 2 pounds of chicken = $7.20

So, it would cost $7.20 for 2 pounds of chicken.

Cost for 3 pounds of chicken = $3.60 x 3
Cost for 3 pounds of chicken = $10.80

So, it would cost $10.80 for 3 pounds of chicken.

Yes, the calculations are correct. It would cost $3.60 for 1 pound, $7.20 for 2 pounds, and $10.80 for 3 pounds of chicken at this rate.
