    A - avocados, G - grapes, K - kiwis.

    We know that: A = 3G, K = A - 0.75

    So: G = A / 3

    A + G + K = 16.75

    A + A/3 + A - 0.75 = 16.75

    7/3 A = 16.75 + 0.75

    7/3 A = 17.50

    A = 17.50 : 7/3

    A = $7.50

    G = 7.50 : 3 = $2.50

    K = 7.50 - 0.75 = $6.75

    Answer:

    Prices of the fruits are A = $7.50, G = $2.50 and K = $6.75.
