3.90c=3.5; Vicky paid $0.90.
3.90 c equals 3.5 ; Vicky paid $0.90.
3.903.5=c; Vicky paid $13.65.
Start Fraction 3.90 over 3.5 End Fraction equals c ; Vicky paid $13.65.
c3.90=3.5; Vicky paid $1.11.
Start Fraction c over 3.90 End Fraction equals 3.5 ; Vicky paid $1.11.
c3.5=3.90; Vicky paid $13.65.
3.90c = 312; Vicky paid $1216.80.
The correct equation that represents the total cost, c, Vicky paid for the oranges is:
c = 3.90 * 312 = $1216.80.
The equation that represents the total cost, c, Vicky paid for the oranges is option 3:
c = 3.903.5 = $13.65
To calculate the total cost, you need to multiply the number of pounds of oranges (312) by the cost per pound ($3.90). This can be written as:
c = 312 * $3.90
Simplifying this equation will give you the total cost, c, that Vicky paid for the oranges.
