Respuesta :

Elizabeth will pay $26.25

EXPLANATION

Given:

Elizabeth purchased 14 apples.

Each apples weighs 12 oz.

• If each apples weighs 12 oz then 14 apples will weigh 14 x 12 = 168 oz.

• We need to convert 168 oz to pounds:

1 pound = 16 ounce

⇒ 1 ounce =0.0625 pound.

• So, 168 oz = 168 x 0.0625 = 10.5 pounds.

If 1 pound = $2.50

Then;

10.5 pound will cost: 10.5 x 2.50 = $26.25

Therefore, Elizabeth will pay $26.25
