Answer:


Explanation:

Given that a store receives shipments of peaches. They want to sort them by weight.

The sorting pattern is as follows:

Peaches : Pound = 2:1 or 3.25:1 or 1:3.25

Given are i) 26 peaches to 13 lbs = 26:13=2:1 Hence goes to the first box

ii) 6 peaches to 19.5 lbs =6:19,5 = 1:3,25 lb. Hence goes to II box

iii) 13 peaches to 4 lbs: =13:4=3.25:1 Hence goes to II box

iv) 39 peaches to 12 lbs: =39:12=3.25:1 Hence goes to II box

v) 15 peaches to 7.5 lbs: =15:7.5=2:1 Hence goes to I box

i - I box

ii - II box

iii - II box

iv) - II box

v) - I box
