Answer: She bought 5 oranges

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find out how much one orange costs first, so we do:

$2.34 ÷ 6or = $0.39

Thirty-nine cents is how much one orange cost.

Now you multiply the initial value of 1 orange by 5, so:

$0.39 x 5 = $1.95, $1.95 =5 oranges

You can also do $1.95 divided by $0.39 which is 5.

(you can multiply till you find the number or divide the given number by the other divided number)

Therefore, that means Mav bought 5 oranges.
