Question

A farm lets you pick 3 pints of raspberries for $12.00 what is the cost per mint

Answer 1

Lets say x=1 pint

Therefore

3x=$12

x=$4

So 1 pint cost $4

Answer 2

Answer: Hi! in this type of problems is useful this rule of 3:

so 3 pints ------------------------- 12$

1 pint --------------------------- x$

so if you do
`(1 pint*12 dollars)/(3 pints)` = 4$

then you know that each pint cost 4$.
