Answer:[tex]1.29 * 2.22 = 2.86[/tex]

$2.86

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the price per pound for the cantaloupe

[tex]3.87/3.0=1.29[/tex]

So one pound of cantaloupe costs $1.29

Now multiply the price per pound by the weight of the second cantaloupe

[tex]1.29*2.22=2.86[/tex]

So the price for a cantaloupe that weighs 2.22 lbs would be $2.86
