Respuesta :

answer $4.48. 0.49×3.5. 1.15×2.4

Cost of bananas per pound = $0.49

Cost of grapes per pound = $1.15

Cost of 3.5 pounds of bananas = [tex]3.5\times0.49=1.715[/tex]

Cost of 2.4 pounds of grapes = [tex]2.4\times1.15=2.76[/tex]

So, total cost of bananas and grapes are = [tex]1.715+2.76=4.475[/tex]

Hence Leanne paid $4.475 for bananas and grapes.
