Allison bought 13 ounces of chips for $2.89. Gabe bought 15.625 ounces of chips. If Gabe paid the same price per ounce as Allison, how much money did Gabe pay for his chips? Round to the nearest cent

Respuesta :

Answer:

  $3.47

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the price per ounce is the same, we can write the proportion ...

  price / ounce = $2.89 / 13 = ?? / 15.625

We can find the amount (??) that Gabe paid by multiplying this equation by 15.625:

  ?? = $2.89·15.625/13 ≈ $3.47

Gabe paid $3.47 for his chips.
