Answer:
The first blank is 9 for 9 cucumbers
The second blank is 8 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use ratios to solve
3 cucumbers x cucumbers
--------------------- = ----------------------
2 dollars 6 dollars
Using cross products
3*6 = 2x
18 = 2x
Divide by 2
18/2 = 2x/2
9 =x
We need 9 cucumbers
For the third row
3 cucumbers 12 cucumbers
--------------------- = ----------------------
2 dollars y dollars
Using cross products
3*y = 2*12
3y = 24
Divide by 3
3y/3 = 24/3
y = 8
We need 8 dollars
