    If you are trying to find the relationship between total cost of the apples and the number of apples purchased, you want to solve for cost per apple (or c/a).

    to solve for c, multiply both sides of the equation by 4, to get:

    (4/5) a = c

    Then, to get c/a, divide both sides of the equation by a, to get:

    4/5 = c/a

    Therefore, the cost per apple is $4/5 or $0.80, which is answer choice A.
