Question

Samantha bought 4.5 pounds of pears. Each pound cost $1.68. How much did Samantha spend?

Answer 1

The way i would do this is ok first find how much each pound cost so would do 1.68÷4.5 and the answer is .37 so you put thant as cents. Thats how much each pound cost you need how much it cost with what you have now so its 1.68 times 4.5 and that equals 7.56.

Answer 2

4.5 * 1.68 = 7.5600
hope this helps:)
