Question

Please help the year is almost over and I need help with this or I will fail and get held back and my sisters will tease me!!!! 20 points

Answer 1

The total weight of the packages of fruit that weigh less than half a pound is, 7/8.

Explanation:

This reason being is because 2 of the 1/8ths are under 1/2 of a pound, and the 1/4th and the 3/8 is all under 1/2 of a pound. You add the 2 1/8ths together and get 2/8 + the 3/8 = 5/8. Then you add the 5/8 together with the only 1/4th and you get 7/8, as your answer.

Hope this helps!! :)
