Answer 1

Answer:

$36.24

Step-by-step explanation:

Evan wants to buy 4.8 pounds of grapes.

Grapes cost $7.55 per pound.

He estimates that he will need $32 to buy the 4.8 pounds of grapes.

He is not correct because

1 pound of grapes = $7.55

4.8 pounds of grapes = $7.55 × 4.8

                                    = $ 36.24

The cost of 4.8 pounds of grapes would be $36.24.

Answer 2

He will need more than $32 to buy 4.8 lbs of grapes. He will spend $36.24 on 4.8 lbs of grapes.
