Answer :

So you know that a pound of rice crackers cost $2.88. You also know that Matthew bought 1/4 or 25% or 0.25 of a pound. This means that by multiplying 0.25 by $2.88, you can determine the cost.

0.25 x 2.88 = $0.72
Therefore, Matthew paid 72 cents or $0.72 for 1/4 pound of rice crackers
2.88/4=0.72
So he payed $0.72 for the crackers
