In order to find out the amount of pounds of tomatoes purchased:

  • We have to know how much one pound is ($3.22 per pound)

  • Total Nico spent ÷ Price per pound

    So it would be

  • 5.76 ÷ 3.22 = 1.78881987578

Rounding our decimal number:

  • If we round to our nearest tenths it would now be 1.8

Answer:

Therefore, the total number of pounds Nico purchased for $5.76 is 1.8lb.
