Question

A pound of flour costs $12. How many ounces of flour can be purchased for $3.30?

Answer 1

4.4 ounces/ 4 ounce (if rounded)

Explanation:

There are 16 ounces in a pound, therefore the equation 12/16 will be useful since 16 ounces in a pound can be divided by 12, in conclusion 12/16=0.75 which is how much an ounce costs.

Then you will take $3.30 and divide it by 0.75 to get your answer for how many ounces you can buy for $3.30 which will equal 4.4 ounces but if you were to round it would be 4 ounces

Hope this helps!
