Answer:

$17.46

Explanation:

To find the Answer first find how many pounds are in 3.5 gallons.

In one gallon there are 8.6 pounds of milk, according to a quick google search.

Next multiply 8.6 pounds by 3.5 gallons

8.6*3.5= 30.1 pounds

Then multiply 30.1 pounds by $0.58

30.1 * $0.58= $17.45800

Now we round to the nearest hundredth

$17.45800≈ $17.46
