<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option: B is the correct answer.

                 B.   2 pounds.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

It is given that:

Juan’s bag of apples that he bought weighed 31/7 pounds.

Ari’s bag of oranges that she bought weighed 19/3 pounds.

Let Ari's bag be x times heavier than Juan's bag.

This means that:

x=\dfrac{19}{3}-\dfrac{31}{7}\\\\i.e.\\\\x=\dfrac{19\times 7-31\times 3}{21}\\\\i.e.\\\\x=\dfrac{133-93}{21}\\\\i.e.\\\\x=\dfrac{40}{21}\\\\i.e.\\\\x=1.904

which is approximately equal to 2 pounds.

The amount by which Ari's bag is heavier then the Juan's Bag is approx : 2 pounds
