The cost of [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] pounds chocolate milk is $6.25 more than the cost of [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] pounds of Caramel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost of one pound of Caramels = $10.28

Cost of [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] pounds of Caramel = [tex]10.28*1\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Cost of [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] pounds = [tex]10.28*\frac{7}{4}=\frac{71.96}{4}= \$17.99[/tex]

Cost of one pound of chocolate milk = $13.85

Cost of [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] pounds = [tex]13.85*1\frac{3}{4}=13.85*\frac{7}{4}[/tex]

Cost of [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] pounds = [tex]\frac{96.95}{4}=\$24.24[/tex]

Difference = 24.24 - 17.99 = $6.25

The cost of [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] pounds chocolate milk is $6.25 more than the cost of [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] pounds of Caramel.
