Answer:

a. $2.18

b. $15.60

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Price per pound of American cheese = $4.35 / 0.75 = $5.8

Price per pound of Swiss cheese = $7.98

Difference in price per pound = $7.98 - $5.8 = $2.18

b. Total amount spent on swiss cheese = $7.98 x 2.5 = $19.95

Amount spent more on Swiss cheese than on American cheese = $19,95 - $4.35 = $15.60

4. Nine fruit juice bottles contain 4 1/2 litres of fruit juice between them.
brilliants [131]

Answer:

2\frac{1}{2} litres or 2.5 litres

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, 9 fruit juice bottles contain 4\frac{1}{2} litres of fruit juice. Therefore, to find how many litres of fruit juice would be contained in 5 fruit juice bottles, you multiply 5 by 4\frac{1}{2} litres and you divide the product by 9.

i.e. Let the quantity of the fruit juice for 5 bottles be x.

9 juice bottles ===> 4\frac{1}{2} litres

5 juice bottles ===> x

∴x = \frac{5 * 4\frac{1}{2} }{9} litres

x = \frac{5 * 4.5}{9} litres

x = \frac{22.5}{9} litres

x = 2.5 litres or 2\frac{1}{2} litres

Hope this helps!!!
