Question

Kyra went to the grocery store on Monday and bought 5 apples and 2 oranges for a total of $3.45. On Thursday she bought 3 oranges and 7 apples for a total of $4.90. How much do the apples and oranges cost?

Answer 1

The apples and oranges cost .49 cents each

Explanation:

When we do 5 + 2 we get 7, 7 is our number of apples and oranges combined.

Next we do 3.45 divided by 7 and get .49

When we do the same for thursday, we get the same answer which confirms our answer.
