Answer 1

Answer:

the unit price of granola is $27

Answer 2

The price of granola is $3 per pound.

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of 2 boxes of granola = $4.50

There are 12 ounces of granola in each box.

Amount of granola in 2 boxes = 12 × 2 = 24 ounces

16 ounces = 1 pound

24 ounces = $\frac{24}{16}$ = 1.5 pounds

∵ The price of 1.5 pounds of granola =$4.50

∴ The price of 1 pound of granola = $\frac{4.50}{1.5}$

                                                        = $3

The price of granola is $3 per pound.
