step-by-step explanation:

proportions are fractions that equal to each other. so if two fractions are the same, they are proportional.

let's check the answers to see if they are proportional.

question a is not proportional because you can't turn 1.5/3 to 3/9. if you try to multiply 1.5/3 by 2 or 3, you wont get 3/9. it's impossible to make the fractions the same.

question b is not proportional because you can't turn 22/33 to 4/6. 33 can't go into 6.

question c is proportional because when you multiply 2 and 3 by 71, you would get 142/213, and those fractions equal to each other

question d is proportional because when you divide 14 and 7 by 2, you would end up with 7/3.5, and those fractions equal to each other.

amount of apples bought =$ 2.6

amount of peaches bought =$ 1.475

amount given by you to cashier= $ 20

amount received by me= amount given by you to cashier -   [amount of apples bought +amount of peaches bought]

                                        = 20   - [1.475 + 2.6]

                                        = 20 -   [ 4.075]

                                        =   $15.925

so, change received by me = $15.925
