Solution

Para resolver este problema, necesitamos encontrar la combinación de naranjas y galletas que sumen un total de $8.25. Vamos a verificar cada opción:

  1. 2 naranjas y 9 galletas:

    • Precio de 2 naranjas: 2 * 0.75=0.75 = 1.50
    • Precio de 9 galletas: 9 * 1.00=1.00 = 9.00
    • Total: 1.50+1.50 + 9.00 = $10.50 (No es correcto)
  2. 1 naranja y 7 galletas:

    • Precio de 1 naranja: 1 * 0.75=0.75 = 0.75
    • Precio de 7 galletas: 7 * 1.00=1.00 = 7.00
    • Total: 0.75+0.75 + 7.00 = $7.75 (No es correcto)
  3. 8 naranjas:

    • Precio de 8 naranjas: 8 * 0.75=0.75 = 6.00
    • Total: $6.00 (No es correcto)
  4. 3 naranjas y 6 galletas:

    • Precio de 3 naranjas: 3 * 0.75=0.75 = 2.25
    • Precio de 6 galletas: 6 * 1.00=1.00 = 6.00
    • Total: 2.25+2.25 + 6.00 = $8.25 (Correcto)

Por lo tanto, la combinación correcta es 3 naranjas y 6 galletas.
