Sylvia bought 1.5 pounds of dried apricots. she spent a total of 9.75. how much would 1 pound cost?

Set up a proportion:

The numerators represent the amount of pounds of apricots, and the denominators represent the cost of the apricots.

Cross multiply:

Divide both sides by 1.5 to get x by itself:

A pound of dried apricots would cost $6.50.

1. is 4 and 2. is 3

step-by-step explanation:

so if you look at the first one you see that 1 is to 4 and 2 is to 8 and so on, so you can see for every 1 there is a times 4 so if it were 3 then it would be 3*4 and it is 12

for number 2 it is 3 because 1 is to 3 and 2 is to 6 so for every 1 there is 3 so if it were 3 then there would be 3*3 = 9
