This problem is one that can be solved very easily with proportions. Let c = cost for 1 lb = 16 oz.
Then, c/13.20 = 16/.44
Cross multiply: .44c = 16(13.20) = 211.2
Divide by .44: c = 480
So the cost of 1 lb is $480

Any good grade schooler with a $4.00 calculator could have this figured out in the time it took you to post this question.

.44oz = $13.20
1lb = 16oz; 1oz - .44oz = .66oz
.66oz = .44oz(1 and 1/2)
.66oz = $19.80
.44oz + .66oz = 1oz = $33.00
16oz = (16)$33.00
1lb = $528.00
