Question

At a deli, roast beef costs $4.25 per pound. The deli was forced to increase prices by 10%. What will a pound of roast beef cost after the increase? (round to the nearest tenth). (Help- Since the cost is increasing, the cost of the lb. of roast beef should be more then it currently is.)

Answer 1

4.25*1.1=4.68
The cost of roast beef will be $4.68 per pound
