First, we need to set up an equation.

6x + 8.75 = 40.55

Then, we use the equation to solve for how much a pound of BBQ costs.

To move 8.75 to the other side, we have to subtract 8.75 from both sides of the equation.

6x = 40.55 - 8.75

6x = 31.8

Next, we divide both sides by 6 to get the value of x.

6x/6 = x

31.8/6 = 5.3

Lastly, add the correct unit.

$5.3.

Therefore, the price per pound of BBQ is $5.30
