How many pounds of bananas did
Meyer buy? Answer by haileytucki(390) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! First, subtract the pizza from the total:
6.04-4.99
Subtract 4.99 from 6.04 to get 1.05.
1.05 is left over.
since the bananas were .35 cents per pound:
(0.35)/(1.05)
Divide 0.35 by 1.05 to get 0.3333333333.
0.333 pounds of bananas were bought
