One day on Sesame Street, a friendly rabbit brought big bird a tube of toothpaste that contained one gallon of toothpaste. If a regular toothpaste cost $1.39 for 2.7 ounce tube what is the value of the sesame steeet tube to the nearest cent?

Sagot :

The sesame street tube bought by the blue bird costs $177.92 which contained one gallon of toothpaste.

Given,

cost of regular toothpaste = $1.39 for 2.7 ounce tube

But the bird took a tube of toothpaste that contained one gallon of toothpaste.

One gallon = 128 ounces

∴the total price at which the toothpaste is brought = price of normal toothpaste × one gallon(128 ounces)

= 1.39 × 128

=$177.92

Here we can observe that a gallon contains 128 ounces. so we need to multiply to the initial cost of the toothpaste to get the final amount of the toothpaste bought by the bird.

Hence the price at which the bird bought the toothpaste is $177.92
