It's actually
1 (1)/(2) pounds, not 1 pound.

because I got this question too. On odysse.yware.

Answer:

0.21 and 0.19

Explanation:

It's simple, just divide it.

Divide 2.59 by 12 and divide 4.68. Then round the answers to the closest number in the choices. That's your answer buddy!

Answer:

$0.216 and $0.293

Explanation:

Given,

Price club sells 12 ounce box = $2.59

Shop mart sells a 1 pound box = $ 4.68.

We have to find the unit price at Price club and Shop mart.

We know that 1 Pound = 16 ounce

Unit price at Price-club =
(2.59)/(12)

= $0.216

Unit price at Shop Mart=
(4.68)/(16)

= $0.293
