Answer 1

The most expensive item was apples.

The least expensive item was pretzels

Explanation:

we know that

The most expensive is the greater value and the least expensive is the smaller value

Compare the values

we have that

`\$3.53 > \$2.54 > \$2.49`

so

`apples > tomatoes > pretzels`

therefore

The most expensive item was apples.

The least expensive item was pretzels
