Question

Last week Elle bought 4 apples for $2.40. This week she bought 9 apples for $5.40. If the cost per apple remains the same, how many apples could she buy next week?

Answer 1

4 apples are $2.40

That means that 2 apples will be $1.20

And that one apple will be $0.60

$0.60*9= $5.40

She buys 5 more apples each week so she will buy 14 apples this week

$0.60*14= $8.40

Final answer : She will buy 14 apples next week for $8.40

Hope it helped! : )
