Nora bought 8-½ pounds of potatoes for $27.63.

What is the price, in dollars, of 1 lb of potatoes?

Answer 1

$3.25

Explanation:

This question tests on the concept of conversion.

Given from the question,

8.5 pounds = $27.63

(8.5 ÷ 8.5) pounds = $27.63 ÷ 8.5

1 pound = $3.25 (Rounded off to 2 decimal places)
