⇒What is needed now is the price of a single orange. We can get that by division of the price of the overall oranges by the number of oranges.


=(2.75)/(5) \\=0.55

The answer is $0.55

Explanation:

if you mean how much would each cost just divide 5 from 2.75 which is equal to 27÷5=0.55

each orange would cost 0.55cent
