Answer 1

Answer:

8 -------$ 12

Step-by-step explanation:

There are different weights of oranges at a farmer’s market given in the question. Two oranges that is three dollars. So one orange will be of one point five dollars. Then five will be equal to seven point five dollars. Much easier form of calculation that is eight equal to seven point five plus one point five that is added three times. This gives the final value of eight oranges that is twelve dollars.

8------12$

2 orange = 3$

So 1 = 1.5$

5 = 7.5$

8 = 7.5 + 1.5 + 1.5 + 1.5

8 oranges = 12$
