Ok So First Your Going To Have To Add If He Buys 3Peaches,And 7Apples,And Comes Back To Buy 5Peaches,And 6Apples

OpenStudy (dallascowboys88):

Next If He Buys 3peaches The First Day And 5Peaches The Next,Then You Add 3Peaches+5Peaches=8Peaches So He Now Bought A Total Of 8 Peaches

OpenStudy (dallascowboys88):

Then 7Apples+6Apples=13Apples

OpenStudy (fairegaming):

then?

OpenStudy (dallascowboys88):

Add 5.60+6.50=12.00

OpenStudy (dallascowboys88):

Then You Do $12.00 Divided By How Ever Much Peaches He Bought Total Which Is 8 Peaches,After You Divide Those You Will Then Get 1.5 So That Means The Cost For One Peach Is ($1.5)Or(P)=$1.5 Each

OpenStudy (dallascowboys88):

Then You Do $12.00/How Much Apples There Are Total ,Which Is 13 Apples,So $12.00 Divided By 13 Apples =($0.92)Or(A)=$0.92 Each

OpenStudy (dallascowboys88):

So Now For Your Final Answer You Get

OpenStudy (dallascowboys88):

Answer=One Peach=($1.5Each)(One Apple=($0.92Each)

OpenStudy (dallascowboys88):

And Now To Get The The Cost For The Other Items For The Second Problem,Just Do The Exact Same Steps I Showed You On The First Problem,To Get The Answer;):)

OpenStudy (dallascowboys88):
