Answer: 1.87 kg of pears
Explanation:
7.5 kg of both apples and pears were sold. 3/4 of this 7.5 kg is apples which means the amount of apples sold is:
= 7.5 * 3/4
= 5.63 kg of apples
The amount of pears sold would therefore be:
= Total amount sold - Amount of apples
= 7.5 - 5.63
= 1.87 kg of pears
