Q. 44 tons of rocks cost $4,640.00\$4,640.00. What is the price per pound?\newline$\$_____
  1. Convert tons to pounds: First, we need to determine how many pounds are in 44 tons since the cost is given for 44 tons and we want to find the price per pound.\newlineWe know that 11 ton is equal to 2,0002,000 pounds.\newlineSo, 44 tons is equal to 4×2,0004 \times 2,000 pounds.
  2. Calculate total pounds: Now, let's calculate the total number of pounds in 44 tons.\newline4×2,000=8,0004 \times 2,000 = 8,000 pounds.
  3. Find cost per pound: Next, we will divide the total cost by the total number of pounds to find the cost per pound.\newlineThe total cost is $4,640.00\$4,640.00, and we have 8,0008,000 pounds.\newlineSo, $4,640.00÷8,000\$4,640.00 \div 8,000 pounds = $0.58\$0.58 per pound.
