Explanation:

Step1: Find cost per ticket

To find the cost per ticket, divide the total cost by the number of tickets. So, $\frac{45}{3} = 15$.

Step2: Find cost per milkshake

First, find the cost per milkshake: $\frac{9.75}{3} = 3.25$. Then, for 2 milkshakes, multiply the cost per milkshake by 2: $3.25\times2 = 6.5$.

Step3: Find cost per orange

First, find the cost per orange: $\frac{1.35}{3} = 0.45$. Then, for 5 oranges, multiply the cost per orange by 5: $0.45\times5 = 2.25$.

Answer:

a. 15
b. 6.5
c. 2.25
