Answer:
A.) $2.52 less per pound. B.) $13.08 more
Step-by-step explanation:
A.) You pay $14.82 for 1.5 lbs of ham. You divide $14.82 by 1.5 lbs (14.82/1.5) to figure out how much you spend per pound of ham. You should get $9.88. Since you spend $12.40 per pound of roast beef, you subtract $9.88 from $12.40 ($12.40 - $9.88). You should get $2.52, which is your answer.
B.) Since you paid $14.82 for 1.5 lbs of ham, you already have this variable. Take the 2.25 lbs of roast beef and multiply it by $12.40 per pound (12.40*2.25). You then take that number ($27.90) and subtract it by $14.82 (27.90-14.82) and you should get your answer, $13.08.
