Answer:

Shawn.

Explanation:

We can solve for apples per hour and pears per hour. For Shawn, to get the apples per hour, we do 4/2 which is 2 bushels of apples per hour. For pears, we do 5/2 which is 2.5 bushels of pears per hour.

When Carla is picking, we can do:4/3 which is 1 and 1/3, which is her apple bushel picking per hour. For her pears, she picks them at 2 bushels of pears per hour.

Since Shawn picks her apples quicker per hour, and her pears quicker per hour, Shawn picks at a faster fruit pace.
