Question

Justin made 6 pounds of granola to sell at his community fair. He charges $6.35 for each 2/3-pound bag of granola. How much money will Justin earn if he sells all of the granola?

Answer 1

Answer:

Justin will earn $57.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Justin has the amount of granola to sell at his community fair = 6 pounds.

He charges $6.35 for each $\frac{2}{3}$ pound bag of granola.

Since $\frac{2}{3}$ pounds of granola sold for = $6.35

1 pound of granola sold for = $\frac{6.35}{\frac{2}{3}}$

                                             = 6.35 × $\frac{3}{2}$

                                             = $\frac{19.05}{2}$

                                             = $9.525

∴ 6 pounds of granola sold for = 9.525 × 6 = $57.15

Justin will earn $57.15 if he sells all of the granola.

Answer 2

so their are 6 pounds of granola thats 18 thirds, if 2/3 sells for 6.35 then theirs 9 2/3 bags because 9*2/3 = 6 so their are 9 2/3 bags so 9*6.35$ = 57.15$

ANSWER: 57.15$ earn
