Devon paid for 4 bananas with a 10 dollar bill he got back 6.40 what was the cost of 1 pound of bananas
Do you mean he bought 4 POUNDS of bananas?
NO
To find the cost of 1 pound of bananas, we need to first determine the cost of 4 bananas.
Devon paid with a $10 bill and received $6.40 in change. Therefore, the cost of 4 bananas can be calculated by subtracting the change from the initial amount:
Cost of 4 bananas = $10 - $6.40
To find the cost of 1 pound of bananas, we need to determine the cost per banana. Since there were 4 bananas, we divide the total cost by 4:
Cost per banana = (Cost of 4 bananas) / 4
Finally, to find the cost of 1 pound of bananas, we need to multiply the cost per banana by the number of bananas in a pound. The number of bananas in a pound can vary, but on average, it is around 3 to 4 bananas. Let's assume it is 3 bananas per pound:
Cost of 1 pound of bananas = (Cost per banana) * 3
By plugging in the values we have, we can now calculate the cost of 1 pound of bananas.
