Answer 2

Answer:

$x=2 \times 2 \frac{4}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Martin had $2 \frac{4}{5}$ pounds of grapes left.

To Find: Which expression shows the pounds of grapes Martin has if he doubles his current amount?

Solution:

Current amount =  $2 \frac{4}{5}$

Now let the amount be x after he doubles the current amount

So, $x=2 \times 2 \frac{4}{5}$

$x=2 \times \frac{14}{5}$

$x=\frac{28}{5}$

$x=5\frac{3}{5}$

Hence the expression shows the pounds of grapes Martin has if he doubles his current amount  $x=2 \times 2 \frac{4}{5}$
