Answer:
$6.08
Step-by-step explanation:
Mohsin purchased a 30-ounce bag of dried Turkish figs for $11.40.
⇒ 30 ounces of dried Turkish figs = $11.40
Finding the cost per ounces:
30 ounces of dried Turkish figs/30 = $11.40
⇒ 30 ounces of dried Turkish figs/30 = $11.40/30
⇒ 1 ounce of dried Turkish figs = $0.38
Finding the cost per pounds:
1 pound ↔ 16 ounces
⇒ 1 ounce of dried Turkish figs = $0.38
⇒ 1 ounce of dried Turkish figs × 16 = $0.38 × 16
⇒ 16 ounces of dried Turkish figs = $6.08
