Question

If a pound of rice flour costs $12, how many ounces can be bought for $6.90?

Answer 1

9.2 ounce

Explanation:

To do this, we divide $12 by 16 ounces, because there are 16 ounces in a pound:

12/16 = 0.75

Now, we need to find how many ounces can be bought for $4.80. To do this, we divide 6.90 by 0.75

=9.2 ounce
