    23lbs

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We can put this into a ratio.

    Each 22lbs of potatoes equal $88,

    22:88

    Simplify it because we need to find out how much 1 potato/dollar buys you each.

    22:88

    /22 / 22

    1 lb: 4 Dollar

    Now we need to find out how much potatoes you can buy with $92 dollars, so we have to make the (4 Dollar) into 92 Dollars.

    92/4=23

    1lb:4 Dollar

    *23 * 23 < - Whatever we do to one side we do to the other,

    23lbs:$92
