C. $.20
D. $.28
is d the right answer?
$0.98/3.5 = $0.28
yes, D is correct.
To find the cost of one pound of bananas, you need to divide the total cost by the total weight. In this case, you have 31/2 pounds, which is equivalent to 3.5 pounds.
So, to find the cost of one pound, you would divide $.98 by 3.5. This division gives us approximately $0.28.
Therefore, the correct answer is D. $.28.
