a customer purchased a package of ground beef at a cost of $ 1.95 per pound . for the same amount of money , the customer could have purchased a piece of steak that weighed 35 percent less than the package of ground beef . what was the cost per pound of the steak ?
"for simplicity , let ' s assume the customer bought 1 pound of ground beef for $ 1.95 . let x be the price per pound for the steak . then 0.65 x = 195 x = 195 / 0.65 = $ 3.00 the answer is c ."
divide(1.95, add(multiply(const_0_25, const_2), multiply(const_0_33, const_1)))
