Answer 1

Answer:

26

Step-by-step explanation:

if you can get 8 oranges for 10.40 then divide 10.40 by 8. you can get each orange for 1.3. you need to know how many oranges you can get for 33.8 so divide that by 1.3 and you get 26

Answer 2

8 oranges=10.40 so 8/10.40= .76923 (per orange)
So then 33.80/.76923= 43.94 oranges. So technically with 33.80$ you can buy 43 oranges and will have some change left
