Final answer:

Latisha ends up with 6 oranges after eating some and then buying additional oranges at the store.

Step-by-step explanation:

Latisha starts with 4 apples and 6 oranges. She eats 2 apples and 3 oranges. Then, she goes to the store and buys 7 more apples, 3 oranges, and 2 bananas. To find out how many oranges she has, we perform the following calculation:

  • Initial oranges: 6
  • Oranges eaten: -3
  • Oranges bought: +3

So, the total number of oranges Latisha has after these transactions is:

6 (initial) - 3 (eaten) + 3 (bought) = 6 oranges.
