Step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

Number of lemons = 2

Cost of 2 lemons = 15 cents

By using "Unitary Method":,

For 15 cents, number of lemons he can bought = 2

For 1 cent, number of lemons he can bought is given by

\(\frac{2}{15}\)

For 60 cents, number of lemons he can bought is given by

\(\frac{2}{15}\times 60\\\\=2\times 4\\\\=8\)

Hence, there are 8 lemons he can bought for 60 cents.
