Solution

First, we need to find out the cost of one orange. We do this by dividing the cost of the box by the number of oranges in the box.

40.95/103=40.95 / 103 = 0.39757281553 per orange

Next, we multiply the cost of one orange by the number of oranges we want to buy.

0.3975728155314=0.39757281553 * 14 = 5.56601861742

Rounding to the nearest hundredth, the cost of 14 oranges would be $5.57.
