Gabi and her friend are running a booth at the carnival selling small decorated bags of candy. In order to make more profit, they purchase candy in a large bag that they will sort into 0.75-pound bags of candy.
They were able to find large bags of candy that contain 18.8 pounds of candy. If they are selling the small bags of candy for $1.50, how much can they make from each large bag? Round to the nearest whole bag of candy and the nearest cent. (1 point)
The number of small bags of candy they can make from each large bag is 18.8 / 0.75 = <<18.8/0.75=25.066666666666666>>25.07 bags.
Since they need to round to the nearest whole bag, they can make 25 bags of candy from each large bag.
The total amount of money they can make from each large bag is therefore 25 * 1.50 = $<<25*1.5=37.5>>37.5. Answer: \boxed{37.5}.
