Nola purchased 2.5 pounds of cheese for 10. $50 her mother purchased 3 pounds of the same cheese for $12.60 the cost of the chee

Delvig [45]

The answer is 5.2 because if you do 12.60 - 10 it’s 2.6 so you add another 2.6 because it’s 2.6 for a half a pound so if you add the two half of pounds it will add up to one pound so it will be 2.6 + 2.6= 5.2 so basically 5.20$
