The farmer sold 5.7 kilograms of apples at the farmers market.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Total weight of pears and apples = 7.6 kilograms
Weight of pears = [tex]\frac{1}{4}\ of\ total\ weight[/tex]
Weight of pears = [tex]\frac{1}{4}*7.6[/tex]
Weight of pears = 1.9 kg
Rest are apples, therefore,
Weight of apples = Total weight - Weight of pears
Weight of apples = 7.6 - 1.9 = 5.7 kg
The farmer sold 5.7 kilograms of apples at the farmers market.
