Answer:

The answer is 6.72

Explanation:

Given;

  • If 500 grams of grapes cost 2.80.

Here, if we double the amount of grapes and money we get,

2 (500) = 1000g

2 (2.8) = 5.6

So, for 1000 g it costs 5.6

and for 100 g it costs 0.56

We need to find the cost 1.2 kg of grapes

So,

5.6 + 0.56 + 0.56 = 6.72

Thus, The cost of 1.2 kg of grapes is 6.72
