Answer:

One pound of chicken is $1.34

Explanation:

So, if 9.5 pounds of chicken is $12.73, all you have to do it divide 12.73 and 9.5. That way, you can see how much each pound is separately! Hopefully this helps!

Answer:


\huge\boxed{1\ pound\ of\ chicken = \$1.34}

Explanation:

9.5 pounds of chicken = $12.73

Dividing both sides by 9.5

1 pound of chicken = $12.73 / 9.5

1 pound of chicken = $1.34
