Question

At the local market, Tristan noticed that bananas were on sale 6 pounds for $12. How much will cost for 19 pounds of bananas?

Answer 1

Answer:

$38

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the price of 1 pound bananas.

6 pounds bananas cost Tristan $12.

So,

x = $\frac{12}{6}$

x = 2.

19 × x       -  cost of 19 pounds of bananas

19 × 2 = 38

∴ It will cost $38 for 19 pounds of bananas.
