[tex]\bf \begin{array}{ccll} \stackrel{apples}{lbs}&\$\\ \cline{1-2} 1.5&3.6\\[1em] \frac{3}{4}&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{1.5}{~~\frac{3}{4}~~}=\cfrac{3.6}{x}\implies \cfrac{1.5}{1}\cdot \cfrac{4}{3}=\cfrac{3.6}{x}\implies \cfrac{6}{3}=\cfrac{3.6}{x} \\\\\\ 2=\cfrac{3.6}{x}\implies 2x=3.6\implies x=\cfrac{3.6}{2}\implies x=1.8[/tex]
