Question

Ms. Anderson paid $22.25 for 5 pounds of cheese. How much would 8 pounds of cheese cost?

Answer 1

First, we would need to figure out how much 1 pound is, which is 4.45.
Then, we would multiply this by three, because 8-5 is 3, so that’s the answer we need. We would get 13.35.
We would lastly add that to 22.25, our starting information. We would get 35.6, which is our answer.

If you are in a hurry, and do not want explanation, answer is $35.6
