Question

directions: type the correct answer in each box. use numerals instead of words. for this item, any non - integer answer should be written as a decimal, rounded to the nearest hundredth. the price for various types of fruit are shown in the table. |fruit|pounds|price| |---|---|---| |bananas|4|$5.48| |oranges|5|$4.85| |apples|3|$3.51| |pears|6|$9.12| use the table to complete the sentences. the unit rate for bananas can be given as \boxed{} pounds per dollar. the unit rate for oranges can be given as \boxed{} pounds per dollar. the unit rate for apples can be given as $ \boxed{} per pound. the unit rate for pears can be given as $ \boxed{} per pound.

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate bananas' unit rate (pounds per dollar)

Unit rate = Pounds / Price. For bananas, pounds = 4, price = $5.48. So, $4 \div 5.48 \approx 0.73$.

Step2: Calculate oranges' unit rate (pounds per dollar)

For oranges, pounds = 5, price = $4.85. So, $5 \div 4.85 \approx 1.03$.

Step3: Calculate apples' unit rate (dollars per pound)

Unit rate = Price / Pounds. For apples, price = $3.51, pounds = 3. So, $3.51 \div 3 = 1.17$.

Step4: Calculate pears' unit rate (dollars per pound)

For pears, price = $9.12, pounds = 6. So, $9.12 \div 6 = 1.52$.

Answer:

0.73
1.03
1.17
1.52
