Answer
The unit rate is $0.2136
Explanation
We are told that 14 lb costs $2.99, we are then told to calculate the unit rate, that is, the price of 1 lb.
Let the unit price or the price of 1 lb be x.
14 lb = 2.99 dollars
1 lb = x dollars
We can write a mathematical expression by cross multiplying
14 × x = 1 × 2.99
14x = 2.99
Divide both sides by 14
(14x/14) = (2.99/14)
x = 0.2136 dollars
Hope this Helps!!!
