For every 6 apple pie, you need 2 pounds of apples.
So, how many pounds of apples do you need for 10 apple pies?
Well, first to figure out this question we first need to make a conversion factor.
I see in the fraction 6/3 we can simplify that to 2/1. Now we got our conversion factor.
We need to invert the fraction in order for the pie unit to cancel out.
1/2 * 10 = 5
You will need 5 pounds of apples to make 10 apple pies.
2 1/2 is in mixed fraction. So let's first make it into improper fraction.
(2*2 + 1) / 2 = 5/2
5/2 of 7.25 = (5*7.25) / 2 = 18.125
in short, 18.125 is the answer
The answer is exponential decay
All you have to do is take the size for every cereal, divide it with its price and you should get your answer as cents. then compare them all and see which one has the lowest price.
* don't forgot to put place holders and add a decimal.
