(a) Elena would like to spend exactly $3.50 on buying fruits. If she buys 1 banana, how
many apples can she buy?


(b) Is it possible for Elena to buy 2 bananas, if she wants to spend exactly $3.50? Why or
why not?

Respuesta :

Answer:

(a) 3 apples (b) no

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) 1 bannana = 0.50

    3 apples = 3.00

    total = 3.50

(b) Not possible because 2 bannanas = 1 dollar 3 bananas = 1.50 then 1.50 + 2.00 apples = 3.50
