Cost of five trays of plant = $105

Cost of one tray of plant = $105
/ 5

So, Cost of one tray of plant = $21

Since, each tray contains 12 plants.

So, Cost of 12 plants = $21

Cost of 1 plant = $21
/ 12

Cost of 15 plants =
(21)/(12) * 15

So, Cost of 15 plants = $26.25

Therefore, Tracy needs to spend $26.25 for 15 additional plants.
