sorry im new to this so i got confused on this but PLEASE HELPPPP MEEEEE

Answer 1

Explanation:

Unit rate = $32/(5 pounds) = $6.40/pound

[You can convert that to smaller units:

$6.40/pound × (1 pound)/(16 ounces) = $0.40/ounce]

:::::

Cost = (number of pounds) × $6.40/pound

:::::

12 pounds × $6.40/pound = $76.80
