You buy butter for $5.60 a pound. One portion of onion compote requires 1.7 oz of butter. How much does the butter for one portion cost? Round to the nearest cent.

Butter per portion equals 60 cents .

Step-by-step explanation:

A pound of butter is worth $ 5.60.

5.60 dollars are converted to cents, 1 dollar equals 100 cents, then:

- One pound of butter equals 560 cents.

A portion of onion compote requires 1.7 oz of butter.

Convert 1.7 oz to pounds, so:

- 1.7 oz of butter equals 0.10625 pounds.

If a pound of butter is worth 560 cents, how much will 0.10625 pounds of butter be worth.

- Rule of 3 is used:

- 560 cents        1 pound butter

  X cents            0.10625 pounds of butters

X = 560 * 0.10625

X = 59.5 cents

X = 60 cents per portion

a^2+b^2=c^2

plug 18 for "r"

the 2 legs are 18 and 24

18^2+24^2=c^2

324+576=c^2

900=c^2

c=30
