Hi there!

In order to answer your question, you'll need to use the cross product method:

35 slices → 1 lb

2 slices → X lb


(1 × 2) ÷ 35 = X lb

2 ÷ 35 = X lb

0.05714286 = X lb OR [tex]\frac{2}{35}[/tex] = X lb


1 lb = $3.79

2/35 lb = $X


(3.79 × (2/35)) ÷ 1 = $X

0.21657143 ÷ 1 = $X

0.21657143 = $X


Your answer : 2 slices of cheese cost about $0.22 cents.


There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)
