The answer would be A. 25/15=3/x

You would match up the prices and apples.

25 matches up with 3, and 15 matches with x.

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to determine how much Treon payed per apple. We can do this by dividing $15 by 25 apples he bought:

[tex]=15/25=3/5/tex]

Treon paid $0.6 per apple. We can now determine the amount he would pay for 3 apples. Let x be the number  price per apple. The expression can be written as:

[tex]25/15=x/3[/tex]
