Question

Ashley had 5.6 pounds of fruit. She gave Aliyah 1.3
pounds of strawberries, Brendan 2.4 pounds of
grapes and Arley 1.2 pounds of bananas. How much
fruit does Ashley have left?

Answer 1

Answer:

0.7 pounds of fruit

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Add all fruit Ashley has been given to Aliyah, Brendan and Arley

Find the sum of;

     1.3 pounds for Aliyah

     2.4 pounds for Berndan

    1.2 pounds for Arley      

    4.9 pounds of fruits

Step 2. Subtract the total pounds given from the total pounds of fruit Ashley had.

5.6 pounds - 4.9 pounds = 0.7 pounds left

Answer; Ashley has 0.7 pounds of fruits left
