Answer:

$ 2.75 or 275 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Amount of potatoes that Gary can buy = 5.5 pounds

Rate of potatoes per pound = 50 cents

We have to find

How much money Gary have= x = ?

As we know

Total Amount Spent on potatoes = (Rate of potatoes per pound) (Amount of potatoes that Gary can buy)

x = (50) (5.5) = 275 cents

We can convert this amount in dollars by dividing it with 100 as 1 dollar contain 100 cents.

x = 275/100 =  $ 2.75

So Gary has 275 cents or 2.75 dollars
