Given:
Cost of 200 g of mixed nuts = $2.50.
To find:
The price of 450 g of nuts.
Solution:
We have,
Cost of 200 g of mixed nuts = 2.50 dollars
Cost of 1 g of mixed nuts = [tex]\dfrac{2.50}{200}[/tex] dollars
Cost of 450 g of mixed nuts = [tex]\dfrac{2.50}{200}\times 450[/tex] dollars
= [tex]\dfrac{2.50}{4}\times 9[/tex] dollars
= [tex]5.625[/tex] dollars
Therefore, the price of 450 g of nuts is $5.625.
