Question

A pound of grapes cost $1.98 and a pound of strawberries is $2.45. If I purchased 0.5 pound of grapes and 1.4 pounds of strawberries, what would be my total cost?

Answer 1

So first let's find the cost of the grapes.

price for half a pound would be half the price. so 1.98/2 = $0.99

then let's find the price for 1.4 pounds of strawberry.

1.4*2.45 = $3.43

now add the answers and you'll get is

= $4.42
