If x is the number of berries you can buy with 1 dollar,

1 pound of blueberries = $4.00

x pound of berries = $1.00

Lets set up a proportion- because these are directly proportional- when there is more pounds of berries, it will cost more.

\frac{1}{4.00} = \frac{x}{1.00}

Cross multiply

4x=1

Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x

x=1/4 or $0.25

---------------------------

10 yd   2ft  7 in



b. 4 yd. 8 in

+ 6 yd. 6 in.

----------------------

10 yd   14 in

but 12 in = 1ft


10 yd       14 in

     + 1ft   - 12 in

---------------------

10 yd  1 ft  2 in



c. 29 yd. 2 ft. 11 in.

  55 yd. 1 ft. 10 in.

+ 13 yd. 1 ft. 3 in.  

--------------------------

97 yd   4 ft   24 in

12 in = 1ft

24 in = 2ft


97 yd   4 ft   24 in

                       + 1 sq ft  - 144 sq in

--------------------------------------------------

4839  sq yd  16 sq ft  119 sq in

4840 sq  yd  7 sq ft  119 sq in
