Question

Jesse bought 3 1/2 pounds of bird seed at $2.00 per pound.
How much should she have paid?

Answer 1

$7.00

Explanation:

Each pound cost $2 and we have 3 pounds which means that's $6:

3 • 2= 6

But then we have half a pound (1/2), well whats half of 2? the answer is 1 which means we add another dollar making that $7.00! :)
