You start by taking the price and divide it by the pounds. 22.10/2.6 = 8.5. So that means that the unit price is $8.50 for a pound of salmon.

what i would do since $22.10 for 2.6 find out how much 1 pound of salmon is

so divide $22.10 by 2.6

which would equal $8.50

$8.50 per pound of salmon

hope this helped :>
