Which situation is best modeled with a division expression?

the total cost of 4 pints of strawberries that sell for $3 each
the cost per pint of 3 pints of blueberries if the total cost was $6
the cost per pint of raspberries after applying a $1 coupon if the normal price was $3 each
the total cost of a pint of blackberries that sells for $3 and a pint of cherries that sells for $4

1 answer

The situation that is best modeled with a division expression is:

The cost per pint of 3 pints of blueberries if the total cost was $6.

In this case, you would use division to find the cost per pint by dividing the total cost ($6) by the number of pints (3). Thus, the expression would be \( \frac{6}{3} \) to find the cost per pint.
