Answer:

$3.52 or $3.53

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that he is paying $2.35 per pound, and that he is buying 1.5 pounds worth of pears. Simply multiply 2.35 times 1.5 to get your answer, depending on how far you round, which is 3.52 or 3.53.

1 pound = $2.35

Leo bought 1 pound and 0.5 of a pound (half of a pound). To find how much 0.5 of a pound costs divide 2.35 (the cost of one full pound) by two

2.35 ÷ 2 = 1.18

so...

1 + 0.5 = 1.5

and

2.35 + 1.18 = 3.53

Leo spent $3.53 on 1.5 pounds of pears

Hope this helped!
