I think it's another trick question and the answer is 2000.
Hey there!
If the price per orange is $.26 and we want to know how many oranges he bought and we have our total, we can set o equal to how many oranges he got and set up an algebraic equation:
0.26o = 2.08
We multiply .26 by o because o is how many oranges he bought and that's what we're solving for- so we multiply by the unit price.
To isolate o, we divide both sides by .26 to get:
The answer is C- Jim bought 8 oranges.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
D. 165
Step-by-step explanation:
if A+n=180
75+90+n=180
165+n=180
n=180-165
n=15
A+n=180
A+15=180
A=180-15
A=165 (D)
