Answer:
Ms. Brown needs 0.18 more cents to afford the pounds of granola and cranberry mix.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ms. Brown = $10 limit
Purchases 1.75 lbs of granola and 2.9 lbs of cranberry mix
Cranberry per lb = $3.25
Granola per lb = $2.19
1.75 x 2.19 = 3.8325 (Cost of granola)
2.9 x 2.19 = 6.351 (Cost of cranberry)
3.8325 + 6.351 = 10.1835 (Total cost of both cranberry and granola)
10.1835 rounded to nearest cent = 10.18
10 < 10.18
Ms. Brown doesn't have enough money to buy the pounds of granola and cranberry mix.
