`32/4=8`

`\displaystyle (32)/(8)=4*1=4`

`\Large \boxed{4}`, is the correct answer.

I hope this helps you and have a wonderful day!

Answer 2

$4 per pound

Explanation:

To find how much one pound of cashew nuts cost you have to use money over unit.

So money/unit, in this problem the money is 32 and the unit is 8.

So 32/8, now you divide 32 by 8 to get the price for one pound.

32 divided by 8 is 4

So $4 per pound
