Answer: the answer is 46
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of one pound of candy be x and one pound of mint be y.
3x+2y=10.8 a
x+3y = 5.35 b
B*3 = 3x+9y = 16.05 b
b-a = 7y = 16.05-10.8= 5.25
y = 5.25/7 = 0.75
The cost per pound of mints is $0.75
My guess is 3/10......because 24/60 is simplified to 3/10
