Answer:

3 pounds (1.36 kg) of coffee purchased.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since she started with $80 and ended with $58.01 we can find the total amount she spent by subtracting these amounts:

$80 - $58.01 = $21.99

This means that she spent $21.99 on coffee.  If each pound cost $7.33, we can divide $21.99 by $7.33 to see how many pounds she bought:

21.99 / 7.33 = 3 pounds (1.36 kg) of coffee purchased.

Hope this helps you!

Have a good evening!
