c3.5=3.90; Vicky paid $13.65.
Start Fraction c over 3.5 End Fraction equals 3.90 ; Vicky paid $13.65.

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.

Answer 1

The correct equation is:

c = 312 pounds * $3.90/pound = $1216.80

So Vicky paid $1216.80 for the oranges.
