Answer:
7 Pounds of apples for a total of 10.15
Explanation:
okay so 3 pounds of apples is 4.35, so how much is one pound?
4.35 divided by 3 is 1.45
1.45 = 1 pound
okay so you can fit at least 6 pounds of apples that will cost around 11.52
so 4.35 x 2 = 8.7
so now we spent 8.7/11.52
so now we can at least put one more pound of apples so the total would be 10.15 or 7 pounds is the answer. it would be 8 pounds of apples but that will make it 11.60 but max is 11.52
