To find the unit price (price per pound), we need to divide the total cost by the weight:
Unit price = Total cost / Weight
Unit price = $20.52 / 4.5 pounds
Unit price = $4.56 per pound (rounded to the nearest cent)
Therefore, the unit price in dollars per pound for the shrimp is $4.56.
The cost for 4.5 pounds of shrimp is $20.52.
Find the unit price in dollars per pound.
