Answer 1

$3 is the unit price of each granola in dollars per pound.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The price of two granola boxes = $ 4.50

No. of granola in each box = 12 ounces

So,

Total granolas in 2 boxes = 2 * 12 = 24 ounces

As we know,

1 pound = 16 ounces  or

1 ounce = 0.0625 pound

so,

Total pounds in 24 ounces = 24 * 0.0625

= 1.5 Pound

∵ 1.5 Pound is the price of 1 pound granola = 4.50/1.5

= $ 3

Thus, $ 3 is the unit price of each granola in dollars per pound.
