Answer:

A- c=2.25g

Explanation:

If you look at this problem, you will see that the only one that makes since is A. B is incorrect because its pounds and you are trying to find the total. C is incorrect because C stands for cost in the problem and we are trying to find the cost. D is the same explanation as C.
