Pecans are $1.30 a pound i want 59 lbs who much will i pay

Question

I want  to buy lager amounts of pecans but dont want to get cheated. I cant remember how to work out this problem.

Answer 1

MULTIPLY the cost per pound by the number of pounds, to get total cost.

 

Do not strain your back carrying 59 lbs of pecans--to do so would be nuts.
