Divide 5.20 by 4.16 which should give you 1.25 hopefully that helped.

we know that

Carrie buys
4.16 pounds of apples for $
5.20 how much does
1 pound cost

by proportion


(5.20)/(4.16) (dollars)/(pound) =(x)/(1) (dollars)/(pound) \\ \\ x=(5.2)/(4.16) \\ \\ x=1.25\ dollars

therefore

the answer is

The cost of one pound is equal to
1.25\ dollars
