Charlene and Gary want to make confetti. In order to get the right balance of ingredients for their tastes they bought 3 pounds of paper hearts at $2.46 per pound, 5 pounds of sparkling stars for $3.05 per pound, and 3 pounds of shiny coils for $2.33 per pound. Determine the cost per pound of the coffeti.

0.712 cents per pound

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given the exact amount of each ingredient as well as the price for that amount then we simply need to calculate how much each pound of the confetti actually costs. We do this by adding together all of the pound of all of the ingredients and then adding together all of the costs. Lastly, we divide the cost by the total amount of pounds to find the cost per pound of the confetti like so...

3lbs. + 5lbs. + 3lbs. = 11 lbs.

$2.46 + $3.05 + $2.33 = $7.84

$7.84 / 11 lbs. = 0.712 cents per pound

Therefore, the cost per pound of the confetti is 0.712 cents per pound

the probability is 0
