Answer:

I am not good at word problems but I think I found some good examples

Step-by-step explanation:

Durain beans cost $9 per pound and they sold 11 pounds.

Multiply the cost by the amount sold: 9 x 11 = $99

Subtract that from the total sold:

196 - 99 = $97

Now divide the amount left by the cost per pound for Ice cream beans:

97 / 10 = 9.7 pounds.
