Copy and Complete the Following
Use Cross Multiplication to figure out the following:

If Pistachio nuts cost    $6/200 g

then...

$6             =   $N  
200g             1000g

6 x 1000  =  200 x N

6000        =  200N
200               200

           30  =  N

Therefore, the pistachio nuts cost $30/kg, or $30/1000g.

Which of the following is the best deal?
  • Peanuts        $4/100g
  • Almonds       $22/1 kg
  • Cashews $15/500mg
