Answer:

3

Explanation:

If you divide 10 divided by 2.77 you get 3.610108303 but you don't need all the decimals so instead you will just get rid of the decimals in this scenario (not in all) and if you double check yourself by doing 2.77 x 3 you will get 8.31 and thats all you can do because 2.77 x 4 is 11.08 but you have a budget of $10.00 so your answer is:

You can get 3 pounds of blueberries with $10
