if 3 lbs of beans cost $6.30, how much will 2lbs cost.?

Question

I know the answer but not how to write it in ratio or proportion please HELP

Answer 1

Find the cost of each pound...

$6.30 / 3 lbs. = $2.10 per lb.

$2.10 X 2 lbs. = $4.20

Answer 2

I can give you the formula to find the answer out.

3lbs=6.30
2lbs=?

therefore 2lbs costs 2*6.30/3 =$4.20

Answer 3

Each pound costs $2.10. We know this because $6.30 divided by 3 is $2.10. So to find how much 2 pounds will cost, multiply $2.10 by 2, which is $4.20.

Answer 4

$6.30 divided by 3 gives you the cost per pound of $2.10. Two pounds would be $4.20.

Answer 5

I discovered Rancho Gordo beans about five years ago at my local Farmers' Market (I live in Napa, CA). I tried a bag o'beans, and was very impressed with the quality of the beans (sorting), the freshness and glossiness of the dried beans (as I sorted), the cook time (less than beans from the store), and then - oh my, the texture of the cooked beans, the aroma as they cooked, the FLAVOR! of the finished product. I have tried most of the varieties Steve Sando offers at RG, they are all superb. My favorite bean is the lima bean; I cooked a pot of Christmas Limas with a ham hock and could not believe how good it was. The flavor and aroma were so multidimensional, and the beans kept their shape beautifully. Plus, locally grown here in the US (Napa!), OR, imported from Mexico where they stand much less chance of GMO contamination. Steve also supports the xoxo project, protecting heirloom beans from eradication. RG beans are good on many many levels!

Answer 6

6.30/3=2.10x2=4.20 so 2 lbs of beans equals $4.20

Answer 7

3= 6.30, 2=x, thus, 2x 6.30 divided by 3 = x x=4.20
two thirds equals X divided by 6.30.

Answer 8

In math terms, the answer is $4.20 but in reality I would say ask the seller to give you some discount!!!hahaha

Answer 9

3/3.6 = 2/x

x is cost of 2 lbs

Answer 10

For the last time, READ YOUR MATH BOOK! Or would you rather be ignorant for the rest of your life?
