2.5 pounds of apples * $1.20 = $3
He spent total $4.50
So he had to have spent 1.50 on oranges.
So $1.50=$1.20 x where x will be the pound of oranges bought.
1.50/1.20 = 1.25 or 1 1/4 pounds of oranges.

Answer:
A person can select 3 coins from a box containing 6 different coins in 120 different ways.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total choices = n = 6
no. of selections to be made = r = 3
The order of selection of coins matter so we will use permutation here.
Using the formula of Permutation:
nPr = 
We can find all possible ways arranging 'r' number of objects from a given 'n' number of choices.
Order of coin is important means that if we select 3 coins in these two orders:
--> nickel - dime - quarter
--> dime - quarter - nickel
They will count as two different cases.
Calculating the no. of ways 3 coins can be selected from 6 coins.
nPr =
= 
nPr = 120
