Answer 1

Mrs. long bought 4 types of fruits at the market:

- 2 cantaloupes that weighed 2.3 pounds each:

that is, a total of 2.3x2 = 4.6

- 6 peaches that weighed a total of 1.7 pounds.

- 4 apples that weighed a total of 1.25 pounds.

- and 3 pounds of grapes.

The total weight of the four fruits is:

4.6 + 1.7 + 1.25 + 3 = 10.55 pounds.
