2. Do Now 1) If a restaurant purchases 45 lbs of butter costing $72.45, how much is the restaurant paying per pound of butter? Answer: $1.16 cents per lb. [Known as the unit cost] 2) If there is a 60% chance of rain, what is the chance of “no rain?” Answer: 40% chance it won’t rain.

3. Minilesson: Mixture and solution problems are extremely similar to each other—and very similar to coin and investment problems: Ex: Notice: Units cancel like common factors.
