Certainly! Let's address each part of the question step-by-step.
### Part (a)
Henry bought 7 pounds of sugar for [tex]$3. To find out how many pounds of sugar he got per dollar, we need to divide the total pounds of sugar by the total cost in dollars.
Given:
- Pounds of sugar: 7 pounds
- Cost of sugar: $[/tex]3
To find the pounds per dollar:
[tex]\[ \text{Pounds per dollar} = \frac{\text{Pounds of sugar}}{\text{Cost (in dollars)}} = \frac{7 \text{ pounds}}{3 \text{ dollars}} \][/tex]
So,
[tex]\[ \text{Pounds per dollar} = \frac{7}{3} \approx 2.33 \][/tex]
Therefore, Henry got approximately 2.33 pounds of sugar per dollar.
### Part (b)
A color printer prints 14 pages in 6 minutes. To find out how many minutes it takes to print one page, we need to divide the total time in minutes by the total number of pages printed.
Given:
- Number of pages: 14 pages
- Time taken: 6 minutes
To find the minutes per page:
[tex]\[ \text{Minutes per page} = \frac{\text{Time (in minutes)}}{\text{Number of pages}} = \frac{6 \text{ minutes}}{14 \text{ pages}} \][/tex]
So,
[tex]\[ \text{Minutes per page} = \frac{6}{14} = \frac{3}{7} \approx 0.43 \][/tex]
Therefore, it takes approximately 0.43 minutes to print one page.
### Summary:
(a) Henry got approximately 2.33 pounds per dollar.
(b) It takes approximately 0.43 minutes per page to print.
