Answer:

4 pounds with a membership

29 pounds without

i just added both because i didnt know if you meant 58 extra dollars after bbuying membership or not

Explanation:

58 -50(membership fee)=8

16 divide by 8=2

16$=8 pounds

8$=4 pounds

---------------------------------------

without membership you could buy 29 pounds of apples

58 divide by 16=3.625

3.625 x 8=29
