To find out how many pounds Sally's cantaloupe weighs, we can use the formula:
weight of cantaloupe = total cost / unit price
In this case, the total cost of the cantaloupe is $1.95 and the unit price is $0.65 per pound. So, we can substitute these values into the formula:
weight of cantaloupe = $1.95 / $0.65 per pound
Dividing $1.95 by $0.65 per pound, we get:
weight of cantaloupe = 3 pounds
Therefore, Sally's cantaloupe weighs 3 pounds. So, the answer is option B. 3 pounds.
