Answer: 5.22kg

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, a farmer sells 8.7 kilograms of pears and apples at the market. Of the pears and apples sold, 2/5 of this weight is pears, and the rest is apples. To calculate the kilograms of apple sold goes thus:

Total kilograms sold = 8.7kg

Fraction of pears weight = 2/5

Pears kilograms sold = 2/5 × 8.7

= 0.4 × 8.7

= 3.48kg

Since the kilograms of pears sold is , 3.48kg, to get the kilograms of apple sold, we subtract 3.48kg from 8.7kg. This will be:

= 8.7kg - 3.48kg

= 5.22kg
