Ashley received a $ 70 gift card for a coffee store. She used it in buying some coffee that cost $7.77 per pound. After buying the coffee, she had $46.69 left on
her card. How many pounds of coffee did she buy?

Respuesta :

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is 3 because 3 pounds would equal $23.31.

$46.69 (what she had left)  plus $23.31 (the 3 pounds she bought) = $70.

Answer: 2.96 pounds of coffee.

Step-by-step explanation:

$70-$46.96=$23.04

$23.04/$7.77=$2.96

So she bought 2.96 lbs worth of coffee. (If you need it to be rounded it would be 3.00 lbs)
