You can set up an expression where p = the pounds of bananas.
With that information, 2p =$1.89
To figure out the cost per pound, you want the cost of 1 p. Therefore, you divide both sides by 2. 
p = $1.89/2
p = $0.945
(since it is money you normally round to two decimal places so you would say $0.95 or 95 cents)
