Anya has 3 pounds of bananas left.

How to calculate the weight of bananas left.

Given that

Anya has 4 pounds of bananas

Pounds of apples = 3 1/2

If Anya gave 1/4 of her 4 pounds of bananas to James,

Total weight given to James = 1/4* 4 = 1 pound of bananas.

Now, subtract this from her initial amount to find how many pounds of bananas she has left:

Remaining = 4 - 1 = 3

Therefore, Anya has 3 pounds of bananas left after giving 1/4 of her bananas to James.
