Answer 1

Answer:

 $W=9.41 pound$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Total amount spent $n=\ =70$

Rate $r= \ 7.44\ per\ pound$

Generally the equation for Total pound of coffee W is mathematically given by

Total pound of coffee=Total amount spent/Rate

 $W=\frac{n}{r}$

 $W=\frac{70}{7.44}$

 $W=9.41 pound$
