A grocer can buy oranges for $1.65 per pound.

1. Write an equation relating c, the cost; and p, the pounds of oranges.


2. An orange order cost $260.10. How many pounds did the grocer order? (Round to the nearest whole number)

Answer 1

157 pounds I'm pretty sure the equation would be 1.65c=p

p is 1 because no given varible since p=1 pound 1.65 would equal p they 157 pounds bc 260.10/1.65 gives you 157 rounded
