Answer:

Juanita is saving $0.10 a pound.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the new price that the salesman offered her, by dividing the total price by the number of pounds of stones:

21.25 / 12.5

= 1.70

This means the new price is $1.70 a pound

Then, find the difference between the new price and the original:

1.80 - 1.70

= 0.10

So, Juanita is saving $0.10 a pound
