Respuesta :

Answer:

Grapes 12 lbs

Apples 20 lbs

Oranges 6 lbs

Cantaloupe 15 lbs

Peaches 15 lbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sammy has bought 12 lbs of Grapes.

Now, weight ration of Apples to Grapes is 5 : 3

Therefore, he bought Apples of [tex]\frac{12 \times 5}{3} =20[/tex] lbs

The wight ration of Grapes to Oranges is 4 : 2

Therefore, he bought Oranges of [tex]\frac{12 \times 2}{4} =6[/tex] lbs

Again, the weight ratio of Cantaloupe to Apples is 3 : 4

Therefore, he bought Cantaloupe of [tex]\frac{20 \times 3}{4} =15[/tex] lbs

Finally the weight ratio of Oranges to Peaches is 2 : 5

Therefore, he bought Peaches of [tex]\frac{6 \times 5}{2} =15[/tex] lbs
