Gary has enough money to buy at most 5.5 pounds of potatoes. The potatoes are 50 cents per pound. How much money does Gary have?

Respuesta :

It would be $2.75. Because, if it's $0.50 per pound, multiply that by 5 pounds, and that will get you $2.50. Then, what's half of $0.50? It will be $0.25, since you need to add the .5 pound to the 5 pounds to make it 5.5 pounds. So then add $0.25 to your $2.50, getting you $2.75. Hope this helps!
