IF COCONUTS ARE TWICE AS EXPENSIVE AS BANANAS, AND BANANAS ARE ONE-THIRD AS EXPENSIVE AS GRAPEFRUITS,WHAT IS THE RATIO OF THE PRICE OF ONE COCONUT TO ONE GRAPEFRUIT?

Respuesta :

$Coconut = 2 x $Banana
$Banana = (1/3) x $Grapefruit

$Coconut = 2 x (1/3) x $Grapefruit

$Coconut = 2/3 x $Grapefruit

One coconut costs 2/3 what a grapefruit costs or "is 2/3 as expensive" to be congruent with the question.
