Sameen bought 2 1/5 pounds of carrots for $6.60. At that rate how much would 1 pound of carrots cost.

Sagot :

I believe it should be $3

You would need to divide 6.60 and 2⅕

You could use a calculator and divide 6.60 and 2.2 (2⅕) to get 3 or divide by using fractions.

Make both 6.60 (6 6/10) and 2⅕ into improper fractions

66/10 ÷ 11/5

Turn it into a multiplication problem and flip 11/5

66/10 × 5/11

Multiply across then divide or simplify

330/110 = 3

So $3 would be your answer

Hope this helps!




1 pound of carrots would cost $3.30

You divide $6.60 by 2 to get the price per pound
