Well u wanna multiply  "5.65 lbs of roast beef, which was on sale for $4.50 per pound. "

$$5.65\times4.50=25.425$$

Now u wanna divide that by  " 6.5 sandwiches"

$$25.425\div6.5=3.911$$

U would just wanna round that to the nearest hundreth to get your final answer

$$3.91$$

The cost per sandwich is 3.91
