Five boxes of bananas sell for $30, which means each box is $6, because 30 divided by 5 is 6. You can buy 1 and a half box of bananas then because 9 divided by 6 is 1 and a half. Or is half boxes are not allowed, you can only buy 1 box.

Hope this helps!

The cost for 5 boxes of bananas is $ 30.00. we have to find how many boxes can be bought for $ 9.00

so for $ 30 you get - 5 boxes

then for $ 9 you can buy - \(\frac{5}{30}* 9 = \frac{45}{30}\)

this can be further simplified as follows

\(\frac{45}{30} = \frac{3}{2} = 1\frac{1}{2}\)

so 1 and a half boxes can be bought for $ 9
