In the given question the most important part is convert ounce to pound and then the problem becomes easy. We already know
1 ounce = 0.0625 pounds
Then
24 ounce = 0.0625 24 pounds
                 = 1.5 pounds
Now let us focus on the problem in hand and the information's that are already given in the question.
The cost per pound of the sandwich sold by Deli = 6.40
Then
The cost of 1.5 pound of sandwich sold by Deli = 6.40 1.5
                                                                             = 9.60
So the cost of 24 ounces of spread is 9.60.
