You go to the store and pick out 3 apples for $0.60 each, 2 bananas for $0.50 each, and 1 quart of yogurt for $4.50. At checkout you present the cashier with a 15% off coupon. How much do you have to pay? Please help and solve in proportion form pleaseeee❤️

Answer:

$6.21

Explanation:

1 apple = $0.60

3 apples = $1.80 (Multiply 0.60 by 3)

2 bananas = $1.00 (Multiply 0.50 by 2)

1 quart of yoghurt = $4.50

Add the prices up first:

1.80 + 1.00 + 4.50 = $7.30

7.30 off 15% = $6.21
