How is this considered college math? This is like 4th-grade math. There are 16 ounces in 1 pound, meaning 32 ounces is 2 pounds. Therefore, we multiply $1.50 by 2. So 32 ounces of broccoli is $3.00. 

Answer: The cost of 32 ounces of broccoli is $3.00

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

Weight of broccoli = 32 ounces

Converting this into pounds, we use the conversion factor:

1 pound = 16 ounces

So, [tex]32ounce\times \frac{1pound}{16ounce}=2pound[/tex]

Cost of 1 pound of broccoli = $1.50

So, cost of 2 pound of broccoli will be = [tex](2\times 1.50)=\$3.00[/tex]

Hence, the cost of 32 ounces of broccoli is $3.00
