Answer:

Explanation:

3 avacados cost 2.40

x avocados cos 12.00

Input: 12 dollars

3/x = 2.4/12 Cross multiply

2.40 x = 3 *12

2.4x = 36

x = 36/2.4

x = 15

=====================

Input: 8.00 dollars.

3/2.4 = x / 8

2.4 * x = 8 * 3

2.4x/2.4 = 24/2.4

x = 10

======================

Input 4.80 dollars.

3/2.4 = x / 4.8

3*4.8 = 2.4x

3*2 = x

x = 6 avocados

======================

3/2.4 = 11/x

x = 8.80

See if you can fill in the intermediate steps.
