Lets start by making a quick equation:
Total cost is y, or 7.98, with the weight being 6 pounds. We are looking for the unit price, which will be our x.
7.98 = 6x
Divide 6 by both sides:
7.98 / 6 = 6x / 6
This gets rid of the 6 on the right, so we are left with:
1.33 = x
So the unit price is $1.33 per pound.
I hope this helps! :)
