Question

Suppose corn chips cost 33.5 cents per ounce. What would a bag of chips cost if it contained 22oz?

Answer 1

$7.37

Explanation:

- 33.5 cents for every ounce

So for 22 oz,

33.5 cents x 22 oz

= 737 cents

Divide by 100 for answer in dollars:

737 / 100

= $7.37

Answer 2

$7.37

Explanation:

multiply 33.5 by 22 and you get 737. Divide that by 100 because of the money place value and you get 7.37
