The grocery store is having a sale on apples. If you buy 8 pounds and it costs $16.00, what is the unit rate of price per pound

Answer 1

To find the unit rate of price per pound, we divide the total cost by the number of pounds.

Price per pound = Total cost / Number of pounds

Price per pound = $16.00 / 8 pounds = $2.00 per pound

Therefore, the unit rate of price per pound is $2.00.
