Answer 1

From the question, we have the following

`\begin{gathered} 1\text{ }pound\text{ }of\text{ }tomatoes=\text{ \$}1.03 \\ \\ 1\text{ }euro=\text{ \$}1.09 \end{gathered}`

We have that

`1\text{ }pound=0.454kg`

So we want to get in euro peer kilogram

`\begin{gathered} Cost=\frac{\text{ \$}1.03}{1\text{ }pound} \\ \\ Cost=\frac{1.03*1.09\text{ }euro}{0.454kg} \\ \\ Cost=2.47\text{ }euro\text{ }per\text{ }kilogram\text{ \lparen to the nearest hundredth\rparen} \end{gathered}`
