Question

If a bottle of syrup cost 3.80 how much does 5 pumps of syrup cost? (show all work)

Answer 1

We first need to figure out how much the syrup costs per ounce. To find this we divide 3.8 by 25.4.

3.8/25.4 = .15

Therefore, it costs 15 cents per ounce of syrup.

One pump is equal to about 1 ounce of syrup.

15 x 5 = 75

Therefore, it costs 75 cents for 5 pumps of syrup.
