Question

If the tomatoes are 6 for $4 how much will 15 tomatoes cost

Answer 1

15 tomatoes costs $10.

First, we need to convert this to a common factor.

The GCF of 6 and 15 is 3.

How do we go from 6 to 3?

Divide by 2.

6 = $4

Divide both by 2

3 = $2

How do we go from 3 to 15?

Multiply by 5

3 * 5 = 15

$2 * 5 = $10

Answer 2

$10 because if there is 15 tomatoes, there are two groups of six which equals $8. then there is 3 left, which is half of 6. so divide the price in half which would be $2. add it together: 8+2= $10
