How much will it cost to buy?

Question

The store is selling lemons at $0.48 each. Each lemon yields about 2 tablespoons of juice. How much will it cost to buy enough lemons to make four 9-inch lemon pies, each requiring half a cup of lemon juice?

Answer 1

4 pies = 2 cups of lemon juice

 

There are 32 Tablespoons in 2 cups

 

You will need 16 lemons to get 32 tablespoons. At 0.48 per lemon it will cost you 16 x $0.48 = $7.68
