If you know how much 1 pound of beef costs and you want the cost of 2.25 pounds you multiply the cost of 1 pound of beef by 2.25.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So, 1 pound of beef = $3.87\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3.87 * 2.25 = $8.7075
\n" ); document.write( "3.87 * 2.25 = $8.71 (nearest cent)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
