Answer : $7.5
1 pack of starbursts cost $1.50 at shoprite.
How much will 5 packs cost
Let the cost in dollars of 5 packs of starbursts be x
1 pack will cost $1.50
5 packs will cost $x
Mathematically,
1 pack ---------------- $1.50
5 packs -------------= $x
Cross multiply
1 * x = 5 x 1.50
x = $7.5
Hence, 5 packs of starbursts would cost $7.5
