1/2 gallon of ice cream is $3.25
11/2 pounds of meat
her change was $0.96

$10-$3.25=$6.75
Nora used $6.75 for buying meat
11/2=5.5 pounds

$6.75-$0.96=$5.79
nora spent $5.79 for the meat
$5.79---------->5.5 pounds
?--------------- 1 pound

$5.79 / 5.5 =$ 1.05
the price of the meat was $ 1.05 per pound
