3 apples cost $1.26. To find the price of how much 10 apples cost, we need to know how much one apple costs. To find that, divide 1.26 by 3.[tex] \frac{1.26}{3}=0.42 [/tex]
That means that one apple is $0.42. Cool! So now, to find how many 10 apples costs, we need to multiply by 10.
[tex]0.42*10=$4.20[/tex]
10 apples costs $4.20!
