Question

Blues berry farm charges Percy a total of $24.75for entrance and 2.5 kilograms of strawberries. The entrance fee is $6 and the price for each kilogram of strawberries is constant

Answer 1

Price of one kilogram of strawberries is $7.5

Explanation:

In Blues berry farm Percy was charged total fees = $24.75

Farm's entrance fees is =$6

so we subtract the entrance fees from total fees = 24.75 - 6 = $18.75

Now we got 2.5 kg strawberries price = $18.75

∵ 2.5 kg strawberries price = $18.75

∴ 1 kg strawberries = 18.75 ÷ 2.5 = $7.5

Therefore the price of each kg strawberries is $7.5.
