Answer: About $5.83 per pound of turkey.

Step-by-step explanation: We want to find how much 1 pound of turkey costs.

To find how much one pound of turkey, all you have to do is divide 7 by 1 1/5. I would first convert 1 1/5 to a decimal. 1 1/5 in decimal form is 1.2. If you divide 7 by 1.2 you will get about 5.83.

So, one pound of turkey costs about $5.83.
