So allison spent 3/5 meaning she saved 2/5 because 3/5 + 2/5 = 5/5
change the 2/5 into decimals by 2 ÷ 5 = 0.4
multiply $55 with 0.4
55 x 0.4 = 22
so she ends up saving $22
I believe it's 37CM, I had that question on my finals last year.
You take the amount paid and divide it by the amount of cheese. So 10.50 divided by 2.5 equals 4.2 and 12.60 divided by 3 equals 4.2 meaning that one pound of cheese costs $4.20
