Question

Grace has 1.35 pounds of strawberries, 1.4 pounds of bananas, and some apples. She has more pounds of apples than pounds of strawberries, but fewer pounds of apples than pounds of bananas. How many pounds of apples could Grace have? Explain the strategy you used.

Answer 1

Grace would have a number between 1.35 and 1.4 pounds of apples. So it could be 1.36 1.37 1.38 or 1.39. I just knew that it was more than 1.35 and less than 1.4. So 1.35

Answer 2

1.35 < pounds of apples < 1.4
