Answer:

Option C is the answer.

Explanation:

The deli uses a scale shown in the picture has a monitor showing three digits.

It is showing a number with two decimal places.

It is obvious that any measurement we do will be reflected on the monitor as

1 : 32, 5 : 00.

A). 1.1 pounds will not be the answer because it has only one decimal place.

B). 2.582 pounds is not correct because it has three decimal places.

C). 1.34 pounds is the correct option because it has two decimal places.

D). 2 pounds 5 ounces is incorrect because it has no decimal.
