Answer:
1.625 kilograms
Step-by-step explanation:
Since total weight of pears and apples is 6.5 kilograms and 3/4 of this weight is pears, the weight of the pears is
→ 6.5 x 3/4 = 4.875 kilograms
Since the weight of the pears is 4.875, we can subtract it from the total weight to find the weight of the apples
→ 6.5 - 4.875 = 1.625 kilograms
Answer:
1.625 kg

Weight proportion of apple[tex]=1-\frac{3}{4}= \frac{1}{4}[/tex]
Therefore:
Weight of Apples sold at the market [tex]= \frac{1}{4} X 6.5 kg\\[/tex]
=1.625 kg
The farmer sold 1.625 kilograms of apple.
