There would have been 3.25 or 3 1/4 pounds of candy eaten.
you would do 5 1/2 - 2 1/4 and get 3 1/4 .

1 1/4  lbs of the candy was eaten. 5 1/2 becomes the improper fraction 11/2 and 2 1/4 becomes the improper fraction 9/4. After subtraction, you get 13/4, or 1 1/4.

Josh went to the store and bought chicken that was on sale, he could buy 8 pounds for $15.92 or 5 pounds for $9.95.
lawyer [7]

Answer: They are both 1.99 a pound.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we need to find the price per pound to compare the two choices. You take the price then divide it by the number of pounds. 15.92/8=1.99. So $1.99 a pound and then the same for 9.95/5 which is also equal to 1.99. Both come out to be 1.99 per pound so <u><em>there is no better buy. </em></u>Cost would be same.
