each apple would be $1.53

$1.53 per pound of apple

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming the question is what is the cost of 1 pound

Set up a equation:

3pounds/$4.59 = 1pound/x

Variable x = cost for one pound

3/4.59 = 1/x

Cross mulitply

3 × x = 4.59 × 1

3x = 4.59

Divide both sides by 3

3x ÷ 3 = 4.59 ÷ 3

x = 1.53

you save $70

discount would be 35% off
