4 pounds 2 ounces of green grapes. What
was the combined weight of the red and
green grapes she bought?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The combined weight of  red and  green grapes in total= 7.625 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of red grapes purchased = 3.5 pounds

The amount of green grapes purchased = 4 pounds  and 2 ounces

Now, 1 ounce =  0.0625 pounds

So, 2 ounces  = 2 x 0.0625  p  = 0.125 pound

So, the amount of green grapes purchased  = 4 pounds + 0.125 pounds

                                                                           = 4. 125 pounds

Now, the combined weight of grapes = weight of ( red + green) grapes

                                                                = 3.5 pounds + 4. 125 pounds

                                                                =7.625 pounds

Hence, the combined weight of the red and  green grapes she bought in total is 7.625 pounds.
