3 pounds of bananas cost $1.50

Answer:  I should charge 150¢ for the bunch of bananas.  

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that I work at a fruit market and bananas cost 50¢ a pound.

A customer hands me a bunch of bananas that weighs 3 pounds.

We are to find the price that I should charge for the bunch of bananas.

We will be using the UNITARY method to solve the given problem.

Also, we know that

100 ¢ = $1.

Cost of 1 pound of bananas =  50¢

Therefore, the cost of 3 pounds of bananas is given by

p = (50 × 3)¢ = 150¢ = $1.50.

Thus, I should charge 150¢ for the bunch of bananas.
