Ello bought 3 1/2 pounds of candy for 8.00. How much did she pay per pound? Round to the nearest cent if necessary

$2.29

Step-by-step explanation:

8 divided by 3.5 is 2.285, so we round up to 2.29 plz mark me brainlest

We are given an item cost before tax = $3.

Sales tax on item = 4.4% of the actual cost.

We are given actual cost = $3.

Therefore, 4.4 % of 3 = 0.044 × 3 = $0.132.

We need to round it to the nearest hundredth or cent that is upto two decimal places.

0.132 could be round to 0.13.
