Answer:

this is how!!!

Explanation:

so since it says “unit price” (also says dollar per bananas) all you have to do is make a variable and substitue

So:

Let number of bananas be “ b “

0.50b

0.5(4)

2

2 dollars

It the same for the rest except the last two

Since you dont know the number of bananas, let b be unknown, but may it equal to the cost given. For example:

10 = 0.5b

Since you dont know b

To solve for b, you have to make b be all by itself (like me when my cousin is sleeping on the other side of the world ;’) )

To do that you have to divide 0.5 to both sides

10 / 0.5 = 0.5b / 0.5

This will remove 0.5 from the right side and isolate b

Since b and 0.5 are being multiplied you can factor 0.5 out from the right side

10 / 0.5 = b

Now simplify

B = 20 bananas
