    Yes

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We know that 1.39 is less than 1.5 and 3.75 is less than 4.

    Hence the price of 3.75kg is going to be less than: 4*1.5=$6

    Given that apples cost $1.39 per kilogram, then the price of 3.75 kg of apples is 3.75*1.39=$ 5.2125.

    Because 5.2125 is actually less than $6

    This means that $6 can buy 3.75 kg of apples.
