What does a pound of coffee cost?

It depends which grocery store you're shopping at. :)In the United States we pay between $5.99 a lb for regular coffee up to $18.99 for specialty grades of coffee.


How do you find the total cost for math?

Hmm... Well, if you were wanting to see what your total cost for something is, you would A: Have to add any costs from your budget for the item and B: Find your gross price. For example- I buy a coffee pot from Wal-mart. it is priced $10.00, it cost me $3.00 in gas to drive to Wal-mart and back, and my time is worth at least $5.00 an hour,(it took me a total of 1 hour to drive there, park, go in, find coffee-pot, check-out and drive home) so, now my coffee-pot has a total cost of 10+3+5=$18.00. Does that help?The reverse of that would be gross profit versus net profit: A company makes $100.00 for a cleaning service. that is their:Gross profit. They then deduct cleaning supplies ($5.00) from that gross profit, now they are at $95.00, then they deduct wages for worker ($25.00) from that gross profit, now they are at $70.00. So their NET profit from that cleaning service is now $70.00.

1 kg of cocoa powder costs 3.60 less than 1 kg of coffee powder If the total costs of 2 kg of coffee powder and 3 kg of cocoa powder is 74.20 find the cost of 1 kg of cocoa powder?

1 kg of cocoa = x1 kg of coffee = yx=y-3.60 -------------------- 1then2y + 3x = 74.20-----------2substitute equation 1 in 2 .2y + 3(y- 3.60) = 74.202y + 3y - 9.18 = 74.205y - 9.18 = 74.205y = 65.02y = 65.02 / 5y = 13.0041 kg of coffee powder = 13.004put y in equation 1x = y - 3.60x= 13.004 - 3.60x = 9.4041 kg of cocoa = 9.404
