Six pounds of grapefruit costs $3.00. 5 pounds of apples costs 2.65. What is the cost per pound for each fruit?

1 grapefruit cost $0.50 and 1 apple cost $0.53

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the unit cost of 1 fruit, divide the cost by the amount of fruit.

Grapefruit = 3.00 ÷ 6 = $0.50

Apple = 2.65 ÷ 5 = $0.53

the final amount you will pay is $68.04.

the tip is determined by the pre-tax amount, so we calculate the tip based on the original bill, not after we've added sales tax.

to find the tip:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we multiply that by 18.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 18 = 9.72

tip = 9.72$

to find the tax:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we can multiply that by 8 to get 8%.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 8 = 4.32

tax= 4.32

now we can add the tip and tax to the bill to get our total.

54 + 9.72 + 4.32 = 68.04

total: $68.04
