Question

Miss Howard is baking cookies for her friends. She buys 5 pounds of flour and spends a total of $11. What is the cost for each pound of flour?

Answer 1

`\huge\boxed{\sf \$ 2.2}`

Explanation:

From the question,

5 pounds of flour = $11

• Divide both sides by 5

5/5 pound of flour = $11 / 5

1 pound of flour = $2.2

`\rule[225]{225}{2}`
