I bought 24 bananas. Each banana weight 50 grams. If the price for bananas was $5.50 per kg, how much did I pay?

I already did 24*50= 1,200 but I can't figure out the rest.

1 kilogram = 1000 grams

24*50= 1,200 grams

5.50/1000 = x/1200

1000x = 6,600

x = $6.60

To calculate the amount you paid for the bananas, you need to convert the weight from grams to kilograms and then multiply it by the price per kilogram.

First, convert the total weight of the bananas from grams to kilograms. Since there are 1000 grams in a kilogram, divide the total weight (1200 grams) by 1000 to get the weight in kilograms: 1200 grams / 1000 = 1.2 kilograms.

Next, multiply the weight in kilograms by the price per kilogram to find out how much you paid. The price per kilogram is $5.50, so the calculation would be: 1.2 kilograms * $5.50 per kilogram = $6.60.

Therefore, you paid $6.60 for the 24 bananas.
