Answer 1

Answer:

Question 1: how much more does 1 1/4 pounds of beef cost than 1 1/4 pounds of turkey?

$4.25/pound (beef) / 4 = $1.06 per 1/4 lb = $4.25 + $1.06 = $5.31 per 1 1/4 lb

$2.85/pound (turkey) / 4 = $0.71 per 1/4 lb = $2.85 + $0.71 = $3.56 per 1 1/4 lb

$5.31 - $3.56  = $1.75 the beef is more expensive by this much compared to the 1 1/4 lb of turkey

Question 2: question 2. brad has 10 dollars to spend at ruby's. He orders 1/2 pound of sausage and 1 1/4 pounds of chicken. How much money will he brad have after he pays for this order?

$3.25 / 2 = $1.62 per 1/2 pound of sausage 

$2.50 / 4 = $0.62 per 1/4 lb of chicken + $2.50 = $3.13 per 1 1/4 lb of chicken

$1.62 (1/2 lb sausage) + $3.13 (1 1/4 lb chicken) =$4.75

$10 (budget) - $4.75 (total expense)  = $5.25 Brad will have this  left
