Answer:

5 bags will cost 36.25

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a proportion to solve. Put the price over the number of bags

21.75 x

---------- = ---------

3 bags 5 bags

Using cross products

21.75 * 5 = 3x

108.75 = 3x

Divide each side by 3

108.75/3 = 3x/3

36.25 =x

5 bags will cost 36.25
