Answer 1

Answer:

She saves 24 cents by buying 24 oranges at store B

Step-by-step explanation:

Price per orange A = 6.48 / 12 oranges = .54 per orange

    .54 * 24 oranges = 12.96   for store A

Price per orange B  = 2.65 / 5 = .53 per orange

  .53 * 24 oranges = 12.72   for store B

12.96  - 12.72 = .24  dollars    (24 cents)
