Question

A 5-pound box of raspberries costs $27.20. What is the price per ounce? $

Answer 1

Answer:

$0.34 per ounce

Step-by-step explanation:

A 5 pound box can be changed to ounces. There are 16 ounces in a pound. So we have 5 groups of 16.

5 × 16 is 80 ounces.

There are 80 ounces in 5lbs.

To get a price per ounces, divide.

dollars/ounces

= 27.20/80

= 0.34 dollars/oz.

This is 34cents per ounce.
