Ally and Beth are at the grocery store. Ally buys a container of milk for $4 and 4.75 pounds of apples. Beth buys a box of cereal for $3 and 5.5 pounds of apples. If the two shoppers spend the same amount, how much does 1 pound of apples cost?

$1.33

Step-by-step explanation:

let the cost of apple be $x .

now according to question the two shoppers spend the same amount

4.75x+4=5.5x+3

0.75x=1

x= 4/3= $1.33

therefore,  pound of apples cost = $1.33

0.16 or 16%

step-by-step explanation:

lets take a coin for example.

if you toss it twice, it has a 1/4 chance of landing on heads both times because 1/2 * 1/2 is 1/4.

with the cards, the chance of picking dog is 0.4. having two people pick one is like picking a card twice in a row. so 0.4 * 0.4 is 0.16, or 16%
